WHISPERSTIK GIVE AWAY! Results in!
« on: June 29, 2008, 09:46:00 PM »
Ok folks here we go. About 2 months ago my buddy Rob Hilt got a call from JD and was told that there was a weight mistake with his bow. No big deal it happens. Well JD felt terrible so he sent Rob this brand new RH 43@28 58" longbow in it's place until his was done. Woods are Bacote limbs and Zebrawood riser. Beautiful! Great guy huh. Well he also told Rob that because this was a mistake of his he could just keep the bow. Yea you heard it right, he told him to keep the bow and do what he wanted to with it. And he was still making Rob the bow he ordered! He told him to sell it, keep it, or give it away. Thats the kind of service JD Lund offers. Now mind you my buddy Rob is going through some tough times right now and he could really use the money. But not Rob, he feels there is someone else out there in worse shape than he so he asked me to take care of this for him. (not to mention he can't afford a computer right now). Which brings me to this post. If there is someone who can't afford a new custom bow and may be down on his/her luck, or a kid needing a new bow, then this could be your lucky week. I will draw a name later this week and the lucky winner will get a $650.00(I think thats close) two month old custom longbow. Yes folks, this is free. So if you fit the criteria please sign up.
This goes to show what good people are out there. JD and Rob deserve a hand!       :clapper:    
One condition from me, please keep Rob in your thoughts and prayers while he goes through this tough time in his life. He's a good father and a good friend of Longbowben and myself. As you can tell he's also a good person. So sign up all!!!
I'll try to post pics tomorrow when I get the bow. Gotta go, I think my face has sprung a leak.

So not to embaress anyone, feel free to PM me if you want in the drawing.

i can say with honesty that JD is a great guy to work with.... when i ordered a bow from him he bent over backwards to make everything perfect and on time. cant say enough about J.D.'s customer service.  #1

and it is nice to see someone willing to give away something of such value.
 good job

BTW- I picked Rob's new bow up at Comptons and it was perfect! JD hit the mark. And it was gorgeous.

JD is top notch. The man answered about a thousand questions I had, straight forward and honestly.

I have two of his bows coming on a test drive, but I think I have made up my mind on ordering a couple, just because of his customer service.

I am not asking for myself...but for my wife. I sent you a PM detailing the reason that I feel SHE is deserving of this bow. Please consider her.

Yes Eric, Rob and JD are a couple of great guys. They will both be mad at me for telling the whole story because they are both very modest. But I felt everyone should hear it.

wow what a great guy!!  my buddy owns one a lefty and he loves it...i myself am not in the need for oen i have several custom bows but my friend sure could useit.

he is in a pretty big bind with money now and i just bought him a compound a few months ago but has mastered it and isn't allowed at our trad only shoots.  he wants to come but can't afford a trad bow right now so ill throw his name in the bag and hope he wins!  would be awsome to have him in the field with us!  if he wins ill gear him up with everything he would need from a quiver, glove/tab, arrows, arm guard etc.  he just needs the stick and string!
