Wow! Amazing! Awesome!
These are just a few words that describe some of the very generous donations for the upcoming PBS Banquet thus far. We can still use more, if you are so inclined.
I just learned of a special "PBS 2008" knife donated by M.S. Jay Hendrickson. Words cannot do it justice but for starters it has a Curly & Bird's Eye mixed maple handle, it is a clip point hunter and has fine silver inlays of PBS on one side of handle and 2008 on the other side. It is a beauty!
For more information on the PBS Banquet, email me at [email protected] or visit our website. Information can be viewed on the "Traditional Events" section of Tradgang. Or you can email the PBS Office at: [email protected] or [email protected]
Thank you very much to Terry Green for allowing PBS to use the Tradgang forum to generate some more interest in PBS and the Banquet.

Several donated hunts so far: Dries Visser Safaris has once again made a very generous donation.

Kevin, I just finished sanding the riser on the 48 inch youth take down recurve I am making. I just got on the site because I am waiting for the glue on the tip overlays to harden, so I have a good start. Be sure to look for it, some youngster is going to get a sharp little bow. I pretty much copied the one I had made for my kids, but made the grip smaller. Boy they got a lot of use out of that bow.
Karen is making a cross stitch picture called Wild Wonders for the ladies luncheon. Greg

We have over 20 custom bows coming is so far and several still to confirm... Lots of eye-candy for the discriminating Trad-ganger!

Just got an email from John Havard. He and his partner Larry Hanify have donated one of their ACS longbows for the PBS Sat. nite auction. Awesome!

Yep, it sure does, Paul. Hope you can make it! Maybe you can bid on the New Zealand tahr hunt arranged and donated through Councilman Jim Akenson...

Kevin,
I just sent the info to Greg Darling about the Take Down Recurve that I'm building for the banquet. Hope to see you there.

Well even if Karen and I can't make it I'll be sending another damascus knife. The handle scales will be ibex horn courtesy of one Mr Steve Hohensee.

AWESOME, Doug! Looks like this banquet is going to cost me some money, again...better start working some OT I guess.

Monte, that's great! Looking forward to seeing you there! I just hunted over the past weekend with my younger brother that has one of your take-downs.

I donated a self bow, too. It shoots really well, so I hope it finds a good home. PBS is really something special.

I hope some appreciates that Mongolian Ibex horn, it looked like Stevo and I might be doing time in a Mongolian prison for that! Also I think it ended up costing Steve about $20 a pound to get it back!

Doug Campbell · « **Reply #13 on:** January 06, 2008, 11:25:00 AM »

I wasn't going to mention that part Rick

Course when your a wildman like Steve that's the risk you take traveling to parts unknown

Rick McGowan · « **Reply #14 on:** January 06, 2008, 12:53:00 PM »

Doug, Its not just being Steve thats risky, being in near proximity is all it takes!

There will be a Mission flag in display case with a certificate flown in Afganistan.

Donated by Associate member David Darling who has been over there with the 110th Fighter Squadron at Bagram AFB near Kabul loading bombs and ammo on A-10 Warthogs and giving Al-Queda and the Taliban hell with 30mm and 500 pound laser guided munitions.

He will be home to us on the 15th of this month!!!! He has a new little girl named Annie and she is a pure blood 8 week old Plott Hound!!

AWESOME, Greg! I think of David often. I'm glad he is getting to come home. Hope to see him in K'zoo.

We will also have a Schafer Silvertip for auction, donated by Beth and Dave Windauer...
