That is sweeeeet. Great lines...      Classy Zipper looks. What kind of core material?

Looking forward to shooting it at Kzoo.

God Bless,   Pierre

Pierre,
I believe that one just has foam cores, and no carbon.

Excellent Bill! Interested also in the core material, brace height, and the string material. What kind of options will be available? Looking forward to shooting it on Saturday!

Mike, It looks like we are in trouble again! That is a very good looking bow! I can't wait to shoot it!

Benjy, Bill should build us a pair of identical bows, then host a shoot off between the two of us, with the winner getting a free bow. I have a practice arrow you could use    Really looking forward to shooting it and discussing it with Bill and Tracy next weekend. Does the foam core run all the way throught the middle of the riser or is that an accent stripe of something else?

Bill, 58", 46# @ 28" is perfect for me. If you want to send that bow to me I will run a bunch of arrows thru it and give you my opinion. I would even be willing to drive to your shop and pick it up! Man, that looks good.

Very nice looking bow..!

Sweet looking bow, I love the design.

Holy Smokers that thing has a ton of reflex. How is that workin out for you? I am guessing no after shot vibes either.
Are you coming to the Tradfest again this year to shoot?
If so bring one of them along I would love to fling some out of it.

purdy
classic zipper look

Yea this one has foam cores with semi clear glass.  :rolleyes:  No need to use the best stuff for a prototype.

Sorry Mark no lefties in the house. I know I'm gonna catch alot of guff over it but there just is not enough time to get some built before Kzoo.

This one seems to like that near 8" brace height.

All the typical Zipper options will be available on the Zipstick.

We are planning to be at the Tradfest shoot again this year. Looking forward to it!

I can't wait to give her a try at K-zoo!!

RM81 and fishone maybe you guys could get down to shoot at the same time.

The strange looking stripe in the center of the riser section is foam core material, veneer, and the belly glass. Running the glass through the riser makes the riser VERY stiff it also allows me to put nearly any grip that someone may want on the bow.

Ohio deer season goes out on Feb. 5. and I just happen to have an unused tag in my pocket.I hope to get to put it on a nice fat slick head after Kzoo.

Bill does that mean the stripe on every bow will be gray? Isn't that the only color of the foam or can it be covered with a veneer?

[lunchbucket]

Bill the bow is beautiful cant wait to shoot it at Kazoo..

[zipper bowss]

If it has foam in the core it will be grey.
I guess I could put both pieces of core material on the back side of the main piece of riser wood. Instead of one on the back and one on the belly.

Thanks Bill. I know, causing problems and I haven't even seen it in person or shot it yet!
