Got a large tube in the mail today????
« on: June 22, 2011, 07:09:00 PM »
The mailman walked into the business today with this loooooong heavy tube. It came all the way from Montana. Glad it made it here in one piece. Of course I put my work aside and went to the back of the store. Cutting the wrapping off one end I was able to look inside. First time I ever saw 2 of these in one tube! Kind of like "double you pleasure, double your fun with..." no not Juicy Fruit gum....

I'll have to see if I can take some pictures of what was inside of that tube. One was for a buddy and one for me. Looking at his I wish I was lefthanded...almost.

Well sorry to keep ya hangin'. But I don't have a way to post a picture right now.    
Did I say how beautiful the lines are in this thing? Yep, real beautiful. Quite the deal actually. Never had one like this. Extraordinary some might say. Not unusual, just special...yeah, that's it, special!
But sadly no way to post a picture.
Not right yet.
I will though.
Soon.
Well pretty soon.
After awhile.
Later on.

If you got two sticks of Juicy Fruit you got ripped. To double your pleasure and fun it should have been two sticks of Double Mint gum in that tube   ;)

hahaha....you're right Mike! Been so long since I've heard that jingle...

Yep, it is kind of worthless without pics. Sure do wish I had some to post on here. But isn't the waiting kind of fun? Like the anticipation of seeing a buck after hearing the rustle of leaves...well maybe not exactly like that.

You'd think that a bunch of hunters used to waiting out many an animal would be able to be more patient. But, oh no, everyone's in a hurry all of a sudden. Give him a break folks. He'll get 'er done.

You guys are way off.  It's a pair of new R.L. Winston fly rods.

If it's not a couple of beauties from HH Archery or Nate Steen in Idaho I'd be disappointed.

I think it's two new fishing poles (a left and a right hand model)?

Tough crowd.  Because it's for Snag, I am thinking they must be a couple of Blacktails that were sent to the wrong address in MT.

These threads which build anticipation make it easier to endure the wait for the end of the gestation period of my own bows.
