Read more about the Zinger Winger Hunt Tester Dummy Launcher - Manual Edition
The Hunt Tester G4 is the Zinger Winger original. The "Hunt Tester" is the largest Winger available. It was designed with one purpose in mind; to throw marks as high and far as physically possible while still being a manageable size and weight. Those that don't mind the extra size swear by this model for the "treetop clearing" marks it throws. Great for clubs or individuals looking for maximum distance and height.
This model features the Multi-Shot Sound release mechanism which allows you to fire 209, .22 or .32 caliber blanks.
Size and Weight
While the "Hunt Tester" is the largest Zinger Winger model it comes surprisingly in a compact package. They are of the same design and appearance as the "Field Trialer" in every way. Constructed from lightweight aluminum tubing they measure 1 1/2" x 25" x 79". They fold flat and weight 19 pounds.
Arc and Throw
This is where you will be awe struck by the performance of the "Hunt Tester". You can achieve the huge Winger marks that are normally seen in hunt tests using this model. No other Winger comes close to its performance. Select between a short or long setting to determine the distance of the mark or adjust the angle of the legs to change the arc. In fact, its versatility allows the user to quickly choose direction, arc, height and distance of the throw. The Hunt Tester will launch ducks, pheasants, pigeons, Dokkens, and bumpers as well as live flyers for those times when you need that added excitement and realism.
Ducks: Long (40 yards) - Short (20 yards)
Bumpers/Pigeons: Long (50 yards) - Short (35 yards)
Dokkens: Long (40+ yards) - Short (25 yards)
To operate as a manual launcher simply attach a heavy cord or light rope.
