You would be surprised on the DA pull of the Redhawk. They have a one spring design that runs the trigger and the hammer. I have 5 Ruger DA revolvers and the Redhawk was the best, even better than some of my Smiths (I used to own).

I have the 5.5 Redhawk in 44 and it has been great for whitetail. I like the 300gr. XTP, but this gun can handle them all. I traded my Redhawk for a 629, but ended up trading it back. The ammo I had already loaded would not fit in the 629, the cylinder was shorter than the Redhawk.

You are better off with the Redhawk for hunting, but the Smith 629 is a fine weapon.
