Zipped One
« on: May 16, 2015, 11:37:00 PM »
On my way back from Alberta, to say the hunt was a success is a huge understatement. My first trip to Alberta, probably not my last. Good camp, friendly co hunters, great
Outfitter and Guide and some very nice bears. Six hunters in camp, all Bowhunters, I was the only one shooting a stick. Total for week, nine bear seven made PY with one Booner.
  Mine squared 6' 8" with a 18 3/16" skull, easily my biggest to date.
  I just got this new Zipper with Z4 limbs about two weeks before the hunt. It's a real sweet shooter, had Bill come up with some really nice old Osage for the riser, came out perfect.
This was my first shot at a game animal with it, gonna be hard to top.
