I am sending a 64" Herters Sambar with an elevated rest.  I think it is about 50# at 28".  I am sending 6 2114 arrows and an additional dozen nocks.  My wife is donating her takedown recurve that started as a 35# AIM, that we refinished and replaced all of the plastic parts with machined brass parts.  Looks nice now and we added a set of 40# limbs to it.  No arrows with that one though.  We'll try and find a box big enough and will ship it out this week.  Thanks for your service,

John, I an sure that Herters will get a work out. How are things at the new job?

I have a few things that will hit the mail soon.
These threads excite me as my best friend Russ started in Traditional Archery while on his 1st tour over there and is now an addict. I will bet we will have a few more addicts coming home. It's also frustrating  with a son in a unit at COB Speicher whose Sgt Major wont let them have an archery range or anything other than their issued weapons. Of course there is no good reason.... but hey it's the Sgt Major so its the law. The boy has flown several bows as cargo out to other FOBs. He is frustrated as can be knowing he returns home middle of deer season and will not be ready to hunt after a year lay off.

Thanks to all of you who donated it has a lasting effect on the young men and women doing the toughest of jobs.

Jim,

Good to hear from you.  Things are good.  I'll be at the bowhunter happening this year.  I made Sgt about 3 months ago as well.  Hope to see you!

Has anyone heard from Jason Newman.

I sent 3 bows, arrows, tabs, stringers, and nick nacks over to Iraq, but I have not heard a thing from him.

My Oregon Hunter's Assn. chapter allocated $300.00 for archery equipment and they want to know how things turned out for the troops, and I don't have an answer for them.

I am in a bit of a pickle here. Can someone help?
