RE-Worked Red Wing Hunter Riser

tippit · October 27, 2019, 01:34:11 PM

Getting ready to head to our Aiken, SC farm for the winter and some hog hunting on my lease in Georgia. So I decided to try one of my Red Wing Hunters this year...but the riser is so fat. Solution diet with my knife grinder and a little elbow grease...tippit

Top is regular Red Wing Hunter/ Bottom is re-worked riser...

Looks great!

Looks good, I prefer a low grip myself.

The Red Wings I've had and shot were all really smooth. Considering your bow collection, my guess is this one is smother then most the others.

A great looking modification.

Good luck with the hogs!
Shoot straight and God bless,

look great !!!

Looks good Jeff , let me know if you need help controlling the hogs.

Kelly · October 28, 2019, 02:22:35 PM

Looks good, Jeff but I prefer the grips like they came from the factory but that's me. The 1962(which both of yours are with Brazilian Rosewood handle) thru 1966(which had a similar shaped Bubinga handle) had the best grips IMO and were very smooth drawing and great shooters.

Oh forgot, I could help you with those hogs, too!

PV,
Keep your calendar open this winter...I'm sure I'm going to need some help with some Hog Eradication

Be happy to help out

I guess we see how we stand Kelly.

Ted & Kelly,
Actually I was thinking of you guys...but I didn't want y'all to miss your winter snow. Just concerned about your health...would probably be just too hot in southern Georgia to chase hogs.
