an offer to others on thir first elk hunt if you need gear.
« on: September 01, 2013, 07:38:00 AM »
i am going on my first elk hunt shortly and i had to buy new gear i have never needed before which has added up pretty good but i know i have it the rest of my life so i'm not worried about total price. i am hunting elk from Sept5-15 in CO. here is my offer to anyone else going through this delema of spending a TON of my on new gear. when i get back any member on Tradgang in DECENT standing is more then welcome to borrow any of my gear you will need for a big hunt and i have pretty much ALL the base's covered but GPS which i borrowed. so if your planning a hunt but don't know if you can swing it give me a shout and i'll hook ya up. so many have helped me get ready i do not know where to start on the thank you's and figured i could pay it forward this way!

Ken, that my friend is one of the most thoughtful and generous offers I have seen in a while. Hope you have a fantastic hunt buddy!   :thumbsup:

Not sure you'll be able to lend it out if your hunting elk yourself every year from now on. I hear its addicting. Good luck pal, I'm sure it will be awesome.

Great offer! Good on ya man  :)  You will need that gear again after this trip. Did my first one 15 years ago, bought all new gear, and have worn it out with 10 trips since! Have fun!

That is how Ken rolls... the man once did a "trade" to me... and what showed up for his part of the "assorted items" is almost embarrassing... the depth of what he sent...the extent of goodies, made me blush!

That boy got a heart as big as he is!

Best wishes, Ken... I'm sure you're soon out the door! Travel safe. Hunt hard and have a grand time just being there!

Nice offer Ken! You should buy a GPS though, they are not that expensive and they last a long time and they are great to mark spots you may want to return too years later! Shawn
