If there's still time, count me in!

Well, I was hoping to jump in after the Ferret or Wingnut, or one of the bowyers in hopes they j-u-s-t might send a bow that was too light for their massive arms (?!?), but I hear the door swnging shut, and I think it is time to throw my hat in the ring before it's too late!
I don't know what (if anything!) may end up coming this way, but I have a nice, useful "elephant" in mind if someone wants to chime in to recieve it!
I'm glad to get a chance to play in this "game", and look forward to forward to seeing some of the goodies that end up being shared by a fun and generous group of bowhunters. I'll be in touch as soon as the list is posted. Thanks to all who are paritcipating!

Daryl
-
Curt, Your package is on the way and should be there thursday or friday.
-
O.k......i'm still confused...it seems that the both the guy before me and after me has already swapped with other tradgangers. Do we still trade with someone who is already in the loop.
-
Bill Leeming, you got a PM.
-
STOBBER,
You should "get" from the person before you and "send" to the person after you on the "list"
I sent you a PM :thumbsup:
-
Just curious........wont some of the guy's be sending twice . I noticed a couple of names that have already mailed their goodies at the beginning of the post.
I'm kinda slow ...so maybe i missed somthing here, please be patient with me.
I never been accused of being the sharpest knife in the drawer.
-
Your not slow Tim.....Just some people are faster than you(i.e. They got on the "list" before you did LOL)
I started the "list" on page 3,(and some folks started sending things) I added more names and continued the "list" on page 4,I added more to the "list" on page 6 or 7,and then posted the entire "list" on page 9 after we closed it.
Some folks who jumped "In" early sent thier gifts early thats all.
-
That's cool brother ! I got some neat stuff to send out either way. Thanks fer the patience!
Tim
-
Good Night "Gang".....See you in the morning
-
I got a few furs from dposalski and a really nice armguard and some old hoyt 2-blade/4-blade broadheads
a real big thank you to him and woodchucker for putting this on
rob
-
Glad you got it. Enjoy!!!
-
All I can say is WOW! GWHUNTER hunter blew me away with my White Elephant. Not only did I get one beautiful hand made awesome sound turkey box call he threw in a Magellen GPS unit to boot! I am overwhelmed! Thanks Bro you made my week!
-
Glad you liked the elephant Jeff. Sassefras/Cherry sound boards,red oak base and black walnut paddle on the turkey call, but you probably already knew that. I hope you use the GPS more than I did (or didn't). I had it for 7 years and never used it. I figured if you can't use it, then you could give it to someone who can. Take care and God bless.
-
Full Quiver II, Tripp, I got your package today. Thanks you Sir for the arrows, broadheads and hat. :notworthy:
-
I got a cool knapped neck knife and sheath from adeeden. I'll try to get some pics. up soon. bretto

-
I can use it all T.J.. It's been on my porch fer a while. Seems the U.P.S guy left it on the front porch....not sure why. We only use the back door so anything left in the front goes un-noticed. Sorry to make you worry like that!
Great stuff T.J.......GOOD SWAP BUD!
Tim

Anybody else?
-
I got mine...This morning as I found a box hiding in my living room. It came from Ian Johnson and , WOW, am I happy. I got:
A large aligator tooth necklace( mojo for elk season)
A cape buffalo hide piece for a bow grip. ( Getting started on that bow this weekend)
Some judo points( Look out squirrels)
Thank you Ian!!!

Up top to make it easer to find! Mike :archer:
-
Got mine from RB today: a dozen beautiful woodies and some woolie sheep whiskers. I'll be using both. Thanks!!!!
-
still looking for my white elephant to fly in... anyone else?
-
Still waitin for mine from PaleFace, but he is in Africa.
-
Just got a PM from PaleFace... He just got back this morning.... I'll be sending a dumbo box his way this week...
-
Still Waiting for the Dumbo Drop. hope it's worth the wait! :pray:
-
Got a very nice packet today from 702plmo. He was a bit longer in sending it because he took the time to hand-make a couple VERY nice leather items.
The supply of gifts included a Double Bull DVD and a North American Hunting Club book by the Wensels (I'll enjoy looking at both!), a neck lanyard, and a Game Tracker string tracker! I've always thought this was an interesting device, but never thought of buying one. I may well experiment with it on spring turkeys next year!!
Jim SAYS he is new at leather crafting, but the things he included in the Dumbo Drop are really top-notch work. He sent an armguard with a diamond of Rattlesnake skin embedded (made from leather he got from 4nolz), a matching limb tip protector, and even a little possibles bag. If I had a gold coin, I'd put it right in there!!
The final item was a hand-made leather/bead/feather decoration for the rearview mirror that his wife made.
Jim, this is more of a "stash" than I would have ever expected, and I appreciate your craftsmanship and generosity. Thanks for all your effort, and for making this exchange so enjoyable. I hope you did as well with the box that landed at your home!
Daryl :clapper:

paleFace, WOW!
What can I say. I got very generous gifts today from paleFace! They were well worth the wait. Well let me start with the 6 custom, 4-fletch, footed arrows that I now posses. These arrows came in a very nice arrow case and I believe they are cedar with black walnut footngs. They are dipped in grey and crested with yellow and white accents. They are beautiful. I got 6 Magnus 125 broadheads that will protrude any animals skin. I didn't count them but I got numerous RW Turkey Feathers cut to 5" for fletchings(perfect because I shoot right helical. Assuming you use left wing, I will be sending you the left wing feathers I have left so you can make use of them). I got a chunk of black locust that is obviously the handle area of a bow that is now a chunk. It appears to be worked to perfection and is a gooed example for me to look at while working on my 1st stave bow. I got a brand new set(top and bottom) of Dickies camoflauge clothing. Very thick and nice stuff! Last but certainly not least I got a coin and a piece of African ground from where paleFace shot his Bleesbuck. Not to mention, he said I should expect 1 more thing in the mail.
PaleFace-You are very generous. Thanks for your time and effort and gifts.
May God's blessings fall upon you in great quantities.
Ben
I am shooting for Aug/Sep 2009 (I graduate from my Master's program and my wife from Nursing school that spring) for my Colorado elk hunt. I will be in contact with you.
