Winners Page
At Zenith Archery Products, we're often approached at trade shows and shoots by users of our releases to share stories or view photographs of recent hunting trophies. We especially enjoy the stories of how our release has helped an archer to improve his hunting or increase his score.
On this page we will be building a collection of these stories, some from more prominent names in the sport and some from just everyday folks. Please email us with your stories and photographs and perhaps we'll add them here. If we include your contribution, we'll send you a Zenith Archery Products hat for your efforts.
Check back often, as this page is a work in progress and will be added to on a regular basis.
Jeff Hunt
Pictured above is Senior archer Jeff Hunt who recently took home the cash from the World Archery Festival Senior Championship Division, besting such top guns as Dennis Neely and Steve Boylan. Jeff had finished 2nd to Steve at Presely and Iowa but held off the field at the WAF with a 299, 300, 300 weekend. Jeff uses a Mathews Conquest 4 with Winners Choice strings, Carbon Express X Jammer arrows, a Brite Site Pro Tuner Rest and of course his Zenith Comfort Twosey in the large size. Jeff will start shooting more outdoors this year it looks like he's is here to stay .
Zenith's Team Germany
Pictured above are Rene Meyer Schutzen, Alfred Schwenzitzki, Marjolijn Temple, Frank Delhke and Dennis Blanke, all members of the same club in Germany. They recently discovered the Zenith Comfort releases shown in picture #2 and have used them to help them through some target panic problems. All are using Zenith's .004 Quarter Moon Cam and from the results shown in picture #3 it looks like they're on their way to some great scores. Thanks for putting your faith in Zenith.
Randy Oleson"Thanks for a great product. I shot your 3 finger back tension release for about 6 months and not one time did I think about the release. I was so confident with this release, I took it to the North and harvested this Mosk Ox at 54 yards"
So who says you can't hunt with a back tension release.

I've been training the Danish National Archery team for 10 years and after that I continued competing indivdually, passing the 1400 fita purple star barrier with 1402 points and a Danish National record at 70m with 354 points. In 2006 I joined the team for the Fita European Indoor Target Archery Championship winning a gold medal.
Since 1997 I've been competing in Fita Outdoor Target Archery Championships and European Grand Prix and Fita World Cup tournaments.
David Keith, of Shepardsville, KY was the first winner in our Pot O' Gold promotion, taking home a cool $550 dollars. Dave uses a Hoyt UltraTec with command cams, a springy rest, 28" Shrewd stabilizer, Sureloc sight with Super Scope scope, 2613 X7 shafts, Bohning nocks, Flitemate points and last but not least a Zenith 3D+ 4 finger Patriot release. Dave says, "Zenith makes an excellent release, smooth and precise." Keep an eye on Dave to be at the top again in Kansas City.
3D Pro, Tony Tazza, shown above with his wife Brenda, was our second Pot O' Gold winner, collecting $200 from the Pot by winning the Atlantic City Archery Classic. Tony used a 2 finger Comfort Release to shoot a 597 and a perfect 600 to take the top spot among the worlds best archers. He shot a Hoyt 2003 Protec/XT2000 Cam and a half, a CBE Pro-Lite sight with a 4X CR scope, Doinker stabilizer with a Side Kick, GK Infinity rest and ACC 3-39 shafts. Keep an eye on Tony this year.
"Your releases are without a doubt, the smoothest, most comfortable and most accurate back tension releases I've ever used. I love the "no loading" feel while shooting! Please continue to manufacture, what I feel is the most superior true back tension releases on the market!!! I have a brass Comfort 2 four finger, this release enabled me to feel comfortable switching to all back tension for the 1999/2000 season. I'll never go back! You provide an invaluable service to the archery industry! Thank you."

I have been shooting and hunting with your release for two years now. I'm using the Comfort2 3D Plus for practice/target/3d, and hunting with a Comfort2 3D Plus handle with the Silent Stalker spring loaded aluminum head. Hunting in Wisconsin and Iowa I have taken 8 whitetail deer so far using your release. No more uncontrollable punching of a trigger.
I love being able to draw on a target or critter, setting the clicker, and squeezing thru the shot with back tension. Funny how the arrow always goes exactly where it is supposed to. Attached is a photo of my latest Iowa buck. Shot him at 12 yards on morning of Nov. 7, 2002. Watched him go down only 35 yards away. He field dressed 247 lb. Thanks for a quality product.

Hello Zenith Archery, Wanting to share a photo of a nice buck I shot using your wonderful comfort release. Boy your releases are great! Nothing better to me! Would it be possible to get a hat or X-lg shirt so I could promote your wonderful products where I live? I will wear it proudly.
