« on: March 07, 2011, 08:19:00 PM »
This is just a couple instances I've had happen for no reason.

These predator calls(2 of 4) from my buddy Fred from CO

Always pack a predator call when out with the longbow!

 


And this from my bud David from NM

 

Thanks again guys and sorry to those I didn't get pics of!   :thumbsup:
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Like it Ken. I'm especially proud of Rick of thefeatheredshaft for generously sending a footed reparrow. I stumpshoot this arrow regularly. So far, impossible to destroy.

Another TG'er in Bend, Oregon sent 6 Ace 160 2-blades. Don't even know his name. These BH's grace my heavier ramin shafts for my heaviest wood arrow yet. Maybe pix later.

Great thread Kenny. I asked some questions not long ago about rubber grips. Bow loving man (Barry Loving from Texas) and Steadman (Ryan) sent me a Shur-grip and an Eclipse grip. Neither would even let me pay for shipping.

Good folks

Nice thread Kenny. "Adeeden" not only sent me a fletching jig that he no longer used, a few months ago, but then sent my son a box choc full of goodies for his 5th birthday. He's one of the most generous guys I've ever met.

Heres some pics of my son with his birthday package...

The memorial contributions and gifts sent after my son's passing.  The list is so long (some have already posted on this thread).  It is overwhelming that so many go out of there way and very few have ever met.  I am proud to be a member of this wonderful site!!!!

Thanks to all of you!

I put a post up on the knife forum about a old service knife from the 40's that I was interested in restoring.  Someone had riveted the butt-cap in place using the knife as a hammer and I was having trouble getting it apart.  Sam Koger (goes by Koger) offered to work on it for free.  I had to fight him to allow me to pay for shipping.  The knife is having a sheath made right now, and I will post pics when its all finished.  Wonderful people here on tradgang and Sam certainly is a great example of the generosity on this site.
