These stories give me the willies! I just man-handled a box I made double walled with all my hunting clothes, take down, boots, calls,etc ad naseum into it and ships tomorrow for a hunt on the 19th.

Firt time shipping ahead... and if they loose this, I'll be hunting in my skivvies both there and back home... Not a seasoned traveler like some here...so this is almost like an African Safarri to ole me!

Glad you got your gear...geeze... that was a long wait! Like many said...very good it was on the return, not on the trip out! Yikes!   :eek:

No. Its a weapon, so that makes the answer an absolute "no".

Jim, I just got your voice mail early this morning.

I'm glad they finally found it for you!   :bigsmyl:    Like I said, it was probably laying in a corner somewhere, just needed someone to take 10 minutes to research it.

I was glad to help...even though I wasn't much help!!   :biglaugh:

Glad they found your bow for you. This is the reason I don't fly anywhere anymore though.

I have my full namne and address & cell phone # in about 10 different locations on my bags,,, what hurts is you can't lock them anymore.  

believe it or not this whole airport super security thing that puts us all in a bad mood actually helped us where even the baggage handlers and loaders all are being watched by cameras at every angle even in the cargo areas by the TSA if someone is seen going into a bag they are on them in seconds.

Logan airport here in Boston was notorius for stuff missing from bags and showing up at the local flea markets where the handlers where the ones taking everything. .

You can carry on your bow, just not the arrows. [Take down that is]. The airline I frequent will not replace it if lost.
