Joan Leonard Memorial Bunny Hunt.....Last Years(06) (Teaser)!!!
« on: January 03, 2006, 05:21:00 PM »
Here it is guys and gals!!! The official thread for what was the Southern NY Bunny Hunt. I was gonna wait another week but I could not stand it. As you know we are gonna have the LDB for the hunt, so I was getting stuff together for some special arrows. I called FoxFire Archery to check on my order and when I spoke to Tracy and told him what the order weas for, he spoke up and said he will make up the arrows and donate them to our raffle for the St. Judes Childrens Fund. Incredible!!! Also HotHap from this site donated a dozen custom made arrows. Big Ed heard what I was doing and is sending me shafts as well and I will turn them into arrows for the table as well. We will also have all the usual contributers as well. The dates for the hunt are the 18th and 19th. of february. People can arrive anytime after 7am sat. morning. I will have directions for all as the time draws near. I will try and start a list like last year as to what food and beverages are being brought and by who and post that list so we do not duplicate to much. I figure just cereal and donuts for breakfast on Sunday as that is easy. For the guys out of state licenses are availible on line or at the local Wal-Mart. We will have a prize table for our fun shoot as well. I have a new idea this year and it involves helium, yes helium!!! I know I am forgetting a bunch of stuff but that is me. We have the same great peices to hunt and I am working on getting back that piece we hunted the first year and could not get into last year!! I know this is gonna be a blast and want to Thank every one in advance for making this such a great time!! OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Shawn

Yes.....Doesn't suprise me Shawn that Tracy is donating arrows at all, he is a good guy to deal with.  A chance to hunt with good people and to shoot the LDB again, I can't wait.  I know you've had a couple of offers, but if you need help setting up on Friday let me know, I can be there to give you a hand.  Helium huh, I don't even want to guess.....

Shawn,

I just checked and I'm off that weekend so I'll be there.

I have a Kern River Longbow that I finished with two strings. I'm not sure if you want it for the raffle or table, its up to you.

Let me know what you need for food or drink.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone.

Jerry

...........Can't wait---I'm in for at least one day-----------Joe----nice arrows---I still have the ones you made last year for the St. Judes Children's raffle---think I will bring them to the bunny hunt--have a feeling they will bring me some luck....


Shawn---I have a full size p/u with a cap....I can put some type of temporary benches in the back to transport some of the BUNNY KILLERS--LOL-


Like 3D muzzy (ED) stated--this is a great place to meet fellow tradgangers----I made two good friends here who turned out to be hunting buddies..

Mark -- Let me know which day (Sat???)...I imagine we can car pool or something...likely will be late cause of Scott, but we're used to it  ;)

Gonna be fun...also...Scott told me about Tx...as long as the plane doesn't crash it should be a BLAST (no pun intended)!

One more thing...for those of us who missed last year, explain a bit about the auction, tables, etc...I may have to make some more items...
