Title: Zipper Evolution
Post by: Jwilliam on January 31, 2010, 02:09:00 PM
I got a chance to shoot the new Zipper Evolution recurve limbs at Kalamazoo this weekend. I was really impressed!! They limbs had a silky smooth draw,were whisper quiet, and flat out smoked an arrow. Plus the bows was dead in the hand after the shot. Can't wait to get the one I have on order!!   :thumbsup:      :notworthy:   Anyone else shoot them this weekend?? What did you think??

Right there with you Bill. I thought the SXT longbow limbs were the ultimate last year but I feel the Evolution limbs are even smoother, quieter, and quicker. I placed an order Friday after shooting both sets of limbs Bill and Tracy had there. Of all the bows I shot at K-Zoo this was the BEST, for me, as far as overall quality and performance.

I shot the LB's and not the curve limbs.  Looks like I missed out.  Oh well, it is someting to look forward to doing.

I also shot the foam longbow limbs...quiet, smooth and just a dull thump at the shot. Soooo, I had to order a bow, and what the heck, might as well get a set of the evolution  recurve limbs also. With this combination, one bow should do it all...(or not)

The Zipper SXT is a nice bow,I shot those limbs back in november.I put an order in for a SXT back then before the show,I figured that there would be a bunch of new orders with the show.

I have an SXT that shoots incredibly well.  I can't imagine it getting any better, but it sounds like Bill has hit another home run with the Evolution limbs.

My son was shooting your bows all weekend.  Wadded a set of arrows into a Skoal can lid sized area about 5X.  Working out a  B-day present with him.  He's gonna have to pay 1/2.  Longbow limbs for sure.  Take care.  Keep in touch and talk to you soon.  Jake

Mike,Tracy was mumbeling something about finding some pink stain that will jive with smoothon.There were some other rambelings but Im sure you will find out soon enough.I think you are in for it buddy.  :biglaugh:  The last time I saw that look in here eye she kicked her favorite dog.Im still trying to get healed up from that.She may look sweet but she is vicious!
