Default Hunters for the Hungry, Looking for Rudolph
Haven't posted any pics for quite awhile, too much going on in warm weather. "Looking for Rudolph" is a donation to the local Hunters for the Hungry annual fund raiser Sat 9/10. Hope he does well.

Comments always appreciated.

John

Nice one. Better be careful though - Rudolph may leave a personal type of present in your stocking this Christmas

Nice donation John, I'm sure he will go over with a big bang. Literally. Both barrels.

Good Luck, Tom

Awesome work. The rifle is one piece? Did you drill through his hand before carving the excess off?

Great job again. And I love the look in the hunters eyes

Yes, the rifle is one piece, and the hand was carved after drilling the hole. Thank you all for the comments, he was a fun guy to do and for a great cause.

Nice carving--cute idea. Good of you to carve and donate to a good cause. Isn't that a good feeling?
