Jake, I tested one for a week and I liked it a lot!!! I still do not think it is as fast as Bill's Evo. recurve limb, but it is very, very fast for a longbow and it has that great longbow feel. I have not shot a Zipper yet that I did not like.

I shot one a bunch in Kzoo and am going down to visit Bill next week to have him fit some new limbs to my riser.  I'll likely end up shoot one again.  If I was buying a new zipper I would probably buy the nitro.  I love the feel of it and like every other zipper it flings an arrow with authority.

Great shooting bow !!! Haven't found anything I don't like about it. Pretty hard to beat anything built by Bill Dunn.  :notworthy:

Here's mine. Riser is Walnut with Cocobolo flare. Limbs are foam/carbon with black glass on bellies and Walnut tips.
