I have decided to try my hand at making Wood pieces for my stocks. I used a piece of the Hickory fire wood i have split up. It has been dead for a lot of years and is Good and Dry. Talk about HARD ..... 
Cut it to workable size on the table saw. Then ran it thru the planer to square it up. I should have used a bigger piece as after squaring up its only 2.5" wide ..... I want 3". But I will go ahead and shape it up and mount on the stock and see how it shoots. I will make another one after I prototype this one. I already see a couple of changes to make. Porbably should make a template from pine as its a lot easier to work. Also I plan on making my own target grips for the 3 guns I shoot Bullseye, .22, .38 Super, and .45 acp.
Just like GOLF, If you cant play good ...... LOOK GOOD ........
