Hi Tim,

No T-shirts in the works yet, but if there is enough interest we may do it.  You are on the list if we do.

Bob,

Yep, Greg's.

Jim just changed the address for his GORH web site so I changed the first post.

all pertinant information is availible by clicking on link in the first post. for those of you that are GORH newbies, take the time to click on the link to all the GORH '99 stuff. GORH survivors, this a most pleasant stroll down memory lane. some good pics, hilarious commentary, and the history of how this all got started in 1939 and resurected in 1999. 2009 marks the 70th anniversary of this epoch event.

wabbits be toast.

Updated the site a little tonight.

We want this GORH to return to the glory days. GORH has kinda fallen to the wayside and the last couple have been thrown together at the last minute. The next one in 2011 will get bigger and better. I'll make sure of it. What I would like to do is have some kinda auction that will raise some money to pay up front for some things needed to pull one of these off. It is almost like a shoot with rabbit huntin to boot. I'd like to see a few vendors at 2001. No reason why this thing cant. So, if anyone has something they would like to donate for an auction, let me know. I know in this day and age money is tight and the things we hold dear become more valuable so if something is donated I'll make sure it gets what its worth. There is allot of time till 2011 but thats where its going.

4runner I didn't even think about that.I did think about shooting home at night and back the next morning to replenish the food supplies. I bet my wife will make some venison pot pies and venison meat balls in mushroom gravy (goes good over mashed potatoes or noodles)for us since I wouldn"t be going to NY for valentines day.

Well fellows we WERE coming but not anymore. We usually go south on a fishing trip this time of year but cancelled. Well we just recently decided to go now and are going to Lake Falcon in Texas. We leave on the 20th. Sorry we're going to miss this great outing. Post some good photos and we'll plan on being there next year.

BTW- I'm still ordering a shirt, they are way to cool!

hetdeerman- My partner wears a 3x shirt but didn't see that size listed. Is it available?

I'm just seeing this. It just occured to me this was the year so I checked. I'm planning on comming. I missed the last one because it was right after the ice storm and we had newborn twins in the house. But I'm planning on this one. I had a great time last time I got to come.

I can't wait. I need to make up some arrows.  :)

Doesn't hurt a fellow to ask. It never fails, I always plan a trip when something at home is going on. Oh well, me and longbowben will just have to wait until next year. But we're gonna reap havoc on those javies in Texas in 10 days!   :bigsmyl:   Good luck.

hey goose i've only been a member here less than a year, and just read of the hunt. i live a little over an hour and a half west of jackson, close to cincinnati. i would love to come. i love shooting anything that runs, jumps, skips, or hops with my blackwidow. are carbon arrows excepted? i can't really afford wood, especially knowing how many i may lose.ha! if there is anyone coming through here and would like a ride, i plan on driving home each night. they can stay with us also. there are only 9 of us, we'll make room. just joking there will only be me and my wife, our children will be at there other parents that weekend. i think i'm looking forward to it, shoot it was 9 degrees here just last night. maybe it will be a flip-flop from last year, cold in december, and nice in feburary but i wouldn't hold my breath, my lungs may freeze. can't wait. oh by the way i have a part beagle part jackrussle that loves to run rabbits 24-7. can i bring her? if she can't keep up with the big dogs can she sleep with you so i don't have to bring her back sat. night? ha! just joking. she has never been in that situation so i don't know if she will hunt with other dogs. sounds like a good place to learn. stump shooting sounds good to me, they don't move or jump the string. see you guys soon. please let me know about the carbon arrows. put me in for the shirt, thanks!  :campfire:
