This is awesome!As a Cubmaster and father of 3 boys,I have never seen a kid that didn't love to shoot a bow.The only thing that my kids instantly drop the video game controller or the skateboard for is when they see me carrying my bow into the back yard.Archery is a great tool for improving a kids self esteem and it is just plain fun.When somebody cares for people that they don't even know, that is true generosity. Thank you for making the world a better place. Brian

Ok, due to the number of entries and limited supply of youth arrows I have, each child will receive 4 arrows so I can make sure I have some for everyone who gets a bow. ALso the gloves did not make it here so this first batch will not get them. My apologies.


I sent out e-mails to folks I need addresses and Usernames from and I need replies ASAP please.

Ended up being six bows given away this time plus some arrows to a young lady who was given a bow by another generous Trad Ganger.

Tomorrow night I'll be giving out the names of February's winners and we'll start a new thread for March.

Thank you guys for choosing Emily. See her note above. She is so excited. She has wanted to hunt with me since she was old enought to talk. She is almost 10 now and has never lost that interest. She just completed her hunter safety class and will be doing her first turkey hunt this spring, with a shotgun though, wich she shot for the very first time today. She did great. I think she will really live up to you're confidence in her to become a responsable "outdoorwoman".

Thanks again from the bottom of my heart and rest assured we will pay this generosity foreward. We'll send some pictures soon.

Now you need to get Emily registered so she can share her adventures with all of us Rick.

On behalf of my buddy Blake Jackson, I love you guys!Blake is going to be blown away when I give him this. I truly believe that this will be a life altering event for this super cool young man.
As soon as he gets it,I will make sure he is registered and pictures of his expression will be posted. I can't wait. Thanks for doing this Vermonster. You are a true hero and I don't just throw that word around lightly.

Folks I in no way did this all on my own. I just drew the short straw and ended up being the face for this while other participants get to remain anonymous and just enjoy. Hopefully we'll grow a few hunters out of this that might otherwise never have got the chance to experience it.
