Yes I am I ashamed of myself. I just found out that I forgot to pay someone for shipping a bow back to me. Its been a couple of years or more. I really just forgot about it. I sent a bow to him  to have it refinished and he did not charge me for that.I did not send it  back to get refinished to sell it. But I did sell it down the road,. I don't remember all the details of why or who. But I do know now that I screwed up. I just want everyone to know I do forget and I do make mistakes . And when I can I try and fix them Elmer I know you may not n believe me but I will send you a MO or paypal you what ever you say I owe ya.I am truly ashamed and sorry. Thanks frank <><

Bravo.  We all suck.  Forgiveness and making things right(restitution when possible) is an awesome thing.

I can trust a guy like that.

Frank,

Merry Christmas

I make mistakes all the time. All we can do is apologize and try and make it right. It's up to others to forgive us. Your top notch in my book as well!

Very well said Lanier!!!

We all make mistakes and bad choices, it's what we do about them or learn from them that determines the kind of character you have.   :thumbsup: !! to you for admitting you were wrong and trying to make things right.

As I recall Frank, it was a bit while back and and Shell had your own hurdles...

This is only between you and this Elmer--  Lord knows your heart and we ain't got a nickle in this dime!

You've shown your true colors of honor and integrity on this site many times over, Son.

Peace

You, Sir are a very big man.  Not only to right something you forgot, but to publicly admit your fault. Not many would post their failing on a public forum.

For that, you have my utmost respect.

May God bless you for this

Frank,
 You and Shell have always been top notch in my book and have always followed HIS path. Once again you are showing your true colors and it will come back to you in multiples. Best wishes for the upcoming holiday to you and yours.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Nothing to be ashamed of Frank. Send him some money, you made it right, accept HIS forgiveness and move on.

Well done Brother.

My side: Frank and I have discussed this in private e-mails; the key word here is [private] Frank contacted me about a bow approx 4 years ago and said he wanted one but at that time he just could not afford a new one. Later he sid he had purchased a used one and wanted to know what I charged to refinish it. I told him to send it to me and let me look at it.I had every intention of doing it for free. I don't remember how I told him [phone or email] that the refinish was done as a favor but if he wantd to he could pay return shipping. At no time have I ever asked Frank for any money on this subject. Mr Vines for your info I have given away at least 50 bows and refinsihed others for Free. I told Frank in an email that that he owes me nothing and that I accept his apology competely. Also if he sent me any money I would just return it. I ordered a set of antler burrs from Frank with my CCB name on them and a crow track in the center. They were as good as you can get. I gave them to one on my customers just because I felt like it. I did not write this to build myself up just to explain things and let you know that Frank owes me nothing it was just an oversite. D. Key you are correct x2  God bless you Frank
