Got so excited I hit the wrong button and quoted myself... can't let that stand!  :)

I've seen it happen, but never would have thought it would happen to me, but...it did.

 posted on St. Judes Forum 1, TGMM thread: May 27, 2011 10:23 AM by one who would call himself "Grinch" (Larry Simmons!)                      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been folllowing this action because I love the cause,I've seen one cheerleader pushing everyone on from the sidelines,so in the spirit of ST.Judes I'd like to sponsor Doc Nock,thanks for encouraging those that can to give.Larry

--------------------
TGMM Family of The Bow,

*************************************
Doesn't happen often, (as those who know me personally can attest) but I was speechless when Larry's PM hit my monitor this AM @ work!

This was the year I knew my several small bids made early would get bumped and I'd committed to dumping all I had into a TGMM this year...

And now, I feel like a character in Great Expectations where my future was taken on by a benefactor.

I'm totally blown away. Humbled, grateful and a bit overwhelmed, but totally blown away.

St. Judes will still get the money I had allowed, but now to weigh where to play!    :)  

Thank you Larry...don't think I can say "Grinch" anymore...     :notworthy:        :pray:

I will donate that, if I can watch.

Larry gives grinches everywhere a bad image. Haven't met him in person yet but I can tell you he's a good fella.

Doc Nock's no slouch in the "Grinch" department and passed the genrocity on to me. Thanks again Bro!

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs
