That's mighty pretty wood--and the kid looks like he'll be a shooter in due time, too.
The thing I like best about Hogue stocks is the slight shelf at the top. Since I can't very well unlearn all the years of bullseye shooting, I might as well enjoy a place to cock my thumb. Another thing I like about Hogue stocks is that they always fit. I don't care for the company's checkering, but I've never bought a pair of Hogue stocks that didn't fit perfectly.
