So what do you think, will he like them?

A lil off topic but Skip, when you pour your 1/32oz RR, did you have to modify your mold for bigger hooks? I'd like to be able to get a #4 hook on them. Been thinking about getting a mold that's 4- 1/32 & 4- 1/16.

I don't pour Roadrunner heads as they are Blakemore heads. It's not legal to pour and sell pony heads as Blakemore is the only one that can legally sell their heads and Pony heads fall under their Trademark due to design. I Have permission and I get my heads unpainted from them, but it's a special case. The ones you see in this picture are 1/16 and they have a #4 hook in them. Roadrunner head hooks sizes are set and I have tried to talk them into putting a larger hook in their 1/32, but they can not do it.

As for Pony heads and if they need mold work or not, I do not know as I do not pour any of my heads. The only legal way to get Pony heads for me is trade something for them.

I thought you poured your own RR's. I like using them but don't like the small hook on the 1/32. I guess I will modify my own mold and do it. I just call them RR's no matter who makes them. Not looking to buy any, just wanted to know if a modification would be needed.
