Needed a heavier set of limbs for my Zipper SXT so, I gave Bill Dunn a call and he hooked me up with the following. 60", 51# @ 28" Bacote w/Foam Cores. Handles my 29" draw with ease! Very smooth with no finger pinch. To say I'm impressed is an understatement. Thank You Bill for the great service and great bow!    :thumbsup:

I also now have a Zipper, an older Standard riser with recurve limbs. 64" 53#@30" and it is a sweetheart. Gonna get a set of used foam core longbow limbs tomorrow from a buddy of mine. They are the same poundage. Should make a nice package to travel with. A riser with 2 sets of limbs at the same weight. Good luck with your Zipper this season...   :thumbsup:  That's a good looking bow!

I hear Bill is going to market a bow called BUTTONS, to keep your mind straight! I love my Zippers too! Did I just make that weird?

Thanks Manny. It's Bacote and Cocobolo. The original limbs are a perfect match in color and so is the matching quiver. Those limbs are 46# @ 28".

I have an older zipper and love it, but would also like to move to the foam core longbow limbs.
I need to see what that would set me back! :-)
Nice looking bow!!

Great looking bow!
I love my Sxt with longbow limbs.  The grip is simply amazing in the hand.  The limbs are previously owned, bamboo and very quiet.
