All the fine folks of TG, please read this.......
« on: September 10, 2008, 09:44:00 PM »
Just a little warning/heads up here....please,  I'll say it again...PLEASE, do not believe all the negative talk/bashing of our very own Terry Green.

Terry never waivers in his quest to keep this site as the crown jewel of internet trad archery/ bowhunting. There's been a very disturbing trend for a bunch of guys to go to other forums and try to make him out to be some kind of traditional archery monster! The Adolf Hitler of TG, a liar, a cheat,etc.....

Don't believe it folks....all this nonsense is just that NONSENSE! I've seen the emails, I've seen paper work, I've seen PM's, I've seen the proof, I've seen the truth!.....If it wasn't for the fact that Terry was such a classy guy and won't stoop to the low level of these other "archery Icons", I guarantee he could set things straight, there's no doubt about it.

 Terry is one of the finest men I've ever met! I'm extremely proud to call him a great friend. He's a  family man first and foremost.He adores his wife and kids, they are his world! Again, I know this, because we've talked a lot about "things". We talk as much about family as we do bowhunting. I'm happy to say we're a lot alike.

 Yes, we as moderators help do out, but the fact is this site is what it is because of Terry! His dedication, time, and effort to this site and it's members is unimaginable! His mission started out and is still today to have a site that showcases trad bowhunting in the most positive way possible. Plain and simple!

 There's some folks out there that just couldn't "fit in" at TG for one reason or another. Those are the folks that like to run to other sites and try to show TG and Terry Green in a negative light. All that does is show anyone with a level head what these people are really all about.....not very classy,or whatever you want to call it.

 So please, don't believe everything you read guys. Remember there's two sides to every story. As good as it would feel for a while to call these folks out with the real truth, it's just not worth stooping to that level......

I hope I got my point across...It was hard putting this into words....but I felt it needed to be said...thanx for reading

I like/perfer this site BECAUSE of Terry and all the moderators. The Internet is a funny place, you can say and do things you wouldn't do in public or in person. This site however holds the members to a higher standard. If you don't meet that standard it is your loss, don't blame Terry.

Well said Curt! I have had the pleasure of meeting Terry and his wife, and two classier people you'll never meet. Got to chat with Terry a time or two on the phone as well and he's always been on the level with me. I've also seen what others stoop to on other sites. If you hang out long enough in the background and observe, you'll see what some of those "fellers" are all about. I've been a member here for almost 3 years and have had "a cup of coffee" elsewhere. This is home. Thanks Terry for all you do for us, sorry you have to put up with the juveniles.

There will always be those who throw stones.....

Trad Gang is the only bowhunting site that I visit everyday. Because it is by far the best, with the best archers/hunters sharing ideas, a bit of fun teasing and 100's of years of bowhunting knowledge in good fellowship.  Terry is a big reason why this continues. Matter of fact this site is so good I send $20 a year to make sure it continues.

Thank you to all who make it happen, esp. Terry.

I've been following a disturbing thread on another site with a lot of accusations being thrown out.  With the level of rancor there, I assume that most likely Terry just doesn't want to bring himself down to their level.

It's a shame people have nothing better to do with their time than to bash on other people! All I can say is that for those who are doing the deed, I feel real sorry for them.

Terry, if you read this, the time you helped me with info on the Arrow Dynamics and providing me contact information, all I can say is the world could use more people like you.

I second the Amen!...Owlbait is right about the Internet being a funny place. I have said this before and will again......I can let my 13 year old son Skyler, look at whatever he wants too on TRAD GANG, and Tammy and I don't have to worry about it. There's not many places like that on the Internet....The reason, in my opinion, is the way it's ran.....AND the reason it continues to grow....Don

This is the only site that I frequent so I have no idea what is being said.
I have been around here for awhile and have seen some of Terry's efforts to keep this place top notch.
This is by far the best site available and this is due to the dedication of Terry and the mods.
I believe we will see that Terry has the support of the vast majority of the folks here.
Keep up the great work fellas.

Terry and everyone else who moderates this site, Big thanks to you all !

I'm usually up on all the "gossip", I must be out hunting too much...

I find when I get REALLY busy like right now, the only place I make time to get to is Trad Gang.  That says a lot to me.

Curt...If it weren't for people like Terry and you and the other mods, I wouldn't be here. That's what separates this place from everywhere else. There's not always a bunch of bull@#$% going on. I'm proud to be a member here. Thanks, Curt for the heads up and Thanks Terry, for giving us a home in cyberspace...Hopefully one day I can share a hunting camp with you guys.

Tradgang is great!  I visit this site every day looking for that special bow and visiting PowWow.  I've purchased through this site and have felt very comfortable with the purchase transaction........ thanks to Terry and moderators.  I do visit other sites, but question myself whether I would purchase/sell there.
The work praises the man.
