Amplitude Zeros in $W^\pm Z$ Production
  We demonstrate that the Standard Model amplitude for $f_1 \bar f_2 \rightarrow W^\pm Z $ at the Born-level exhibits an approximate zero located at $\cos\theta = (g^{f_1}_{-} + g^{f_2}_{-}) / (g^{f_1}_{-} - g^{f_2}_{-})$ at high energies, where the $g^{f_i}_{-}$ ($i=1,2$) are the left-handed couplings of the $Z$-boson to fermions and $\theta$ is the center of mass scattering angle of the $W$-boson. The approximate zero is the combined result of an exact zero in the dominant helicity amplitudes ${\cal M}(\pm,\mp)$ and strong gauge cancelations in the remaining amplitudes. For non-standard $WWZ$ couplings these cancelations no longer occur and the approximate amplitude zero is eliminated.
