Kip Wood Gunstocks

Hi guys, I am in Northern Michigan and have been hearing a lot lately about Kip Wood. I have two guns I am looking to restock and I am considering going down to his shop to check things out but I wanted to ask if anyone here has had a Parker restocked by him and how they liked it.

Also, i've searched and seen past threads that said he is retiring but I did speak with him recently and that is not the case.

If you've done a search here for Kip Wood you undoubtedly know that he built the stock for Rich Anderson's "Gunner's Gun". I know Rich had him restock this Parker as well as several rifles for him. I have a friend who has had a couple of Foxes stocked by Kip and has another Fox being restocked with Kip right now.
Here's a link to Rich's initial thread on Gunner's Gun:

John, I've not used Kip, but I do have a couple friends that have. I've seen his work on Parker, Fox and Remington stocks. Kip does excellent work, and has a great turn around time! My one friend lives there during the summer and uses Kip for all his stock work.

Hey John, Kip did the wood on my lifter 20, spectacular to say the least. Winter is the best time to send work.... good luck
