Great success Benjy. It must've been that practice arrow that you had that started it off.  So an up and down year with your Zipper? Success is up, animals are down? Did you find yourself short drawing and becoming rusty with your Zipper?  :bigsmyl:  See you at the next ProStaff meeting  ;)

The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

After reading the title, Benjy, I was wondering where you were going with it. d;^)
  Good shooting. Not much room in your freezer this year. Good luck for the rest of the season. I really miss the liberal SC hunting season. Longest or second longest in the country and a deer a day if I'm not mistaken. Although August 15th in a SC river swamp can be pretty miserable I still used to do it.

Theres a saying about a HVAC company that comes to mind "It's hard to stop a Trane" well the same could be said about a Zipper! Although I roll my own now adays I was always a Zipper fan. If for some reason I couldn't make my own no doubt what bow I'd be in the market for.

Is it my imagination, or are you gaining weight Benjy??  Looking a little heavier in that last photo!   With all that protein you're gonna be needing a diet!!   :p    :p  

Congratulations on a fantastic year!!

Eric, it will be October before I get back up there unless Bill with Zipper will accept my "will work for bow" offer!

Now Joe! Why did you have to go there! Bill will be laughing for a while about that one!

Bill, I can't wait for the Zipstick, I hope the first one is a 62" 50@29 with timber rattler skins  :bigsmyl:
