Anybody shot this bow? Zipper SXT with Z4 limbs? Thoughts on the bow?

I shot one at Tom's shop and it was really nice as all zippers are. It has a different draw cycle and almost feels like it drops weight at the end. Very smooth and fast. The only reason I chose the C2 limbs is because I would rather have wood veneers instead of the carbon. Can't go wrong if you decide to get one

I have never drawn or shot a supercurve.  I am fascinated by the design.  Did you find the bow loud or having handshock?

It has a different sound but is still very quiet. Smooth as butter to shoot!

I have a bow coming to Texas....  I am not sure on the wood in the riser, limbs are carbon and fiber.

I'd be willing to bet it will be a sweet shooter! Let us know what you think about it

Bow shoots very nice.  I have some carbon Gold Tips coming to build a EFOC hunting arrows for the bow.  So far pretty dang happy with this one.
Might have to paint the quiver to match the riser...

Deciding on a bow for myself, between a Widow, Bob Lee and likely this Zipper model
