    HW70 Custom Grip

    Hi All
    I have not been practicing for the June comp the last couple of days, instead I have been making a custom grip for my HW70 doubt if it will improve my scores but feels a lot better to hold. The grip is made from mahogany two boards laminated together, needs a bit more sanding and polishing but I thought I would show them anyway, hope you like them

    Cheers, A little more sanding and polishing and a good oiling should do the trick Just wanted to try it out for day or two

    Looking good Keith..

    Thought about doing a bit of stippling on the grip? Made one for my compact and it helped my grip a lot.

    Had not thought of that what did you use to get the stipple effect

    Dremel with a small knurled tip. Just pressed it into the wood carefully in a random pattern. As long as you take your time, works a treat..
