trimmed my riflesman hawk

[Bushman5]

I trimmed the hammer end off my CS Riflemans hawk, now it has a rounded poll (like some of Vecs hawks).

all i can say is WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!!!! , both in weight, balance and when throwing..... :thumbup:

sorry no pics, no camera.

Sounds interesting...Glad it worked out for you !

next one, grind off the hump on the top of the blade that was what i did next after grinding the hammer off. another huge difference in weight, plus you can sharpen the top of the bit, so if your thowing it can stick a bit better on a tad bit of an overthrow.

And it would appear since i took this photo after i sharpened the top of the bit, i cut the poll off after, not before.



Just throwing another good mod for the riflemen out there.

Cool!
Any idea how much weight was removed?
Hmmm I have a "virgin" Rifleman's hawk here that has yet to be modded!
lol!

about 2.5 oz....the piece removed was the same weight as a 2.5 oz fishing weight.... +/-
