Zinger, Zinger Winger II G5, Silver
The Zinger Winger II™ (ZW-II) continues to be one of our best-selling models because it delivers exceptional performance at an outstanding value. While it does not match the extreme distance of the Field Trialer™ (see comparison chart), it produces marks that closely replicate what dogs see at weekend Hunt Tests and Field Trials. Its compact footprint and lightweight construction make transport and field setup quick and easy.
The Zinger Winger II launches ducks, pheasants, pigeons, Dokkens, bumpers, and live flyers with consistency. Weighing only 13 lbs and folding flat to 1.5" x 25" x 56", it stores easily and fits comfortably in most vehicles. Direction, arc, and height can be adjusted quickly to create realistic, repeatable training scenarios.
Engineered for Reliable Launches
The Zinger Winger II™ G5 is built with heavy-duty hinges, an upgraded wire harness, and our exclusive Sure-Shot™ release mechanism to ensure consistent, accurate throws. The Sure-Shot™ system fires a 209 primer at the instant of release, helping your dog visually track the bird as it travels through the air.
This precise timing improves marking success, increases clean retrieves, and builds confidence. When needed, the launcher can also be operated without a blank for a silent launch.
Remote Release Capable
When paired with Dogtra or Garmin (Tri-Tronics) remote release electronics (sold separately), the Zinger Winger II becomes an even more powerful training tool. It allows you to present marks that match the distance, arc, and height seen in real competition. To operate your winger remotely, order your remote release electronics here. A remote Zinger Winger™ is essential for effective solo training.
Rolling Release™ Included
Every Zinger Winger™ comes standard with the Rolling Release™ pouch bolt, designed to deliver smooth, flawless launches while eliminating pouch hang-ups and primer misfires caused by metal wear. No maintenance required.
More champion retrievers have been trained using Zinger Winger™ remote launchers than any other winger on the market.
All Zinger Wingers™ are proudly made in Canada using parts and suppliers from both the USA and Canada.
- Ducks: Long (20 yards)
- Bumpers/Pigeons: Long (30 yards)
