NEW 05 Thumbhole Stock from T/C Encore
Not sure if anyone has tried these yet as TC just came out with them this year, but I bet some of you guys have Boyds or other laminated one's on your Encores.
Any experience on a thumbhole for the Encore? Does the thumbhole feature become a detractant due to the hammer cocking when your ready to take that shot? Seems like all the reasons I like them would be canceled by the weird hand movement needed when you need to pull that hammer back and that deer is looking at you.

You'd better check with T/C before adding a hammer extention. There was a post on here a few months ago where someone said T/C would void the warranty if an extention was used. They claimed it put the action in a bind from the hammer not being pulled straight back. But, I don't recall whether that was ever confirmed or not.
