I know this is a long shot, but by any chance would someone happen to know "whom" might have this bow right now.

It is a Zipper SXT 64" longbow limbs with carbon on the belly, foam cores and tulipwood lams on the backside. Riser is tulipwood and macassar ebony. I'd REALLY like to get this bow back on my rack. It was built for me in early 2010 and I sold it to a "kmunch" here on TradGang. kmunch (Kevin Munchel) lives, or did then in Lawton, Oklahoma. I have his phone number and haven't been able to make contact with him......yet, but will keep trying.
The reason that I am posting here is because I "think" he sold it, right after buying it from me. I'm hoping that I can get in contact with someone that either owns the bow now........or knows who does.
Thanks...........in advance

I have no idea who does own it Don, but I do know who wishes he did..........ME!
That is a very nice looking bow. Good luck on the search.
:campfire:
Don, I see why you want it back! Interesting combo of woods , very nice.
I think there's a line of guys who would love to have that on the rack.....line starts here :biglaugh: I really hope you find it and can get it back.......if you do and you ever what to sell it again....just say'n!
I hope you get her back Don, she is a real head turner.
Bob Stager has it. I will see him at Kzoo.
Bill
Good luck Don,but I see Bill is on its tracks! :pray:
Like a loving father, Bill knows where all of his children are. Kinda makes ya go a little goopy, don't it?
I am happy for your good fortune in locating the bow, Don. Good luck buying it back!
Killdeer :pray:

I'm starting to get a little misty eyed! ;) :help: :rolleyes:
LOL owlbait, I wonder if there will be a long lost reunion in the near future, keep us posted Don. :D
I've seen Don put some seriously beautiful and great performing bows up for sale and wished I could've been able to get one or two from him. This was one of them!
Wow I can surely see why you would want that one back, SWEET.
Well? :dunno: Is she coming home?
Bill
Thanks EVERYONE.....for the help in locating a bow that I should have NEVER let leave my rack.
Bill......YES.....she will be coming home within the next month or so.
I contacted Bob Stager and will get with him on the phone in the next few days. He was kind enough to offer to sell her back to me and I'm gonna take him up on his offer. We've gotta work out the details on everything but it sure looks like I will have it back where it belongs fairly soon.
I have owned and sold quite a few bows over the past few years and this Zipper SXT is one that I had "second thoughts" about before it ever left my house. Currently, I only own two recurves and need a longbow that I can shoot equally as well as my recurves. THIS ONE.......is the only one that I've owned that I can shoot just as well.
Once again.......I am truly humbled by how remarkable the people on this site are.
Thank-You ALL very much for helping me track down this bow. :campfire:

Hopefully we can do that this year, Mike. Last year (and probably this year too) we had our two oldest Grandchildren in tow and the oldest little boy wouldn't let me get off the 3D courses at all. He's a shootin' machine and I was and still am doing everything possible to keep him interested.
We need to get 'er done this year for sure. Unless something happens between now and then, we'll be there.

I'll catch up with you on the course if that's what it takes! See ya Don, take care of yourself and the family.
Mike
Great story!
