I Won Grand Prize....Yee Haw!!!!
« on: September 28, 2008, 09:18:00 PM »
Well folks, today was the last day of the John A. Logan  Hunting and Fishing days events-and i have not miss one of these in over 18 years-so i decided to take my 2yo nephew, bro and sis-n-law, for the day. Same ol' usual folks. And like usual i bought some raffle tickets in hopes of winning big. Well i did. I won a 3 day filmed hunt on my location by Full Throttle Productions. They said the hunt would be aired on several cable channels and featured in their new DVD. When Russ Maver-the head feller-asked me what i planned on using, i replied "probably traditional equiptment" a bit awe-struck, i showed him a picture of the most recent arrowhead i mounted on a cedar shaft.

Me recieving the award from Russ
 

the traditional equiptment i was talking about! all hand made by me and my brother.

Well heck?  Which sponsor or AMO company can take credit for your gear?????  Gotta be able ta plug at least two or three sponsors don't they?

Now you go out there and show 'em how it's done!

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

I'm not sure who is the bigger winner here, you or them. You won the prize but if you take an animal on film with that awesome gear it will be the best footage they ever filmed   :thumbsup:

Congrats!!!

But my hats off to you for your dedication to making everything... I want to learn to do that my self one day... I wish you well on the hunt and hope you do well in front of the camera... I would love to see that!!!  I am sure the sponsors are not pleased you won't be pushing product!!! But the kewl factor for the producer will pay beau coup if you connect!!!
