Southern Community Bow Set done good!!!
« on: March 31, 2008, 02:50:21 pm »
I just received an e-mail from Tom Jones of RMEF and he told me that the Southern Community Bow Set went for $700. I was quite pleased with this amount and I'll bet Justin is also. ;D I'm trying to find out who received the set so we can get the back issues to them. I'll also try to get some comments from the recipient if possible. ;)
   Thanks again to everyone for making this and the Northern set a success. We done good for a bunch of red necks.       Pat

I am pleased as punch.  ;D I knew it was worth some serious $, I just didn't know if they would know that.  Maybe they will even hunt with it.  Justin

That's good to hear. It was worth every penny, too.

Since the southern bow made more than the northern bow does that mean that they "won" the war and that south TRULY has risen again....cue the Lynard Skynard music......

Good job fellers.  Sounds like a reasonable price, really a bargain considering all that went into it.  You probably had that much in it, in postage.

I got an e-mail from Kristy Boswell of RMEF. She was my contact person and was present at the convention. Kristy said there was a lot of buzz about the set and always a few people gathered around it throughout the convention. A gentleman from Canton, GA was the recipient so the Southern Community Bow Set stayed SOUTH. ;D.      Pat

Pappy, A guy named Michael Thoresen from Canton GA. The RMEF national convention was in Reno.
   I'll try to contact the guy and see if he will take some pics for us. Pat

I'm such a dufus! I read about "set" and couldn't figure out why it done good.
You guys have done traditional archery a big service.  Most of the RMEF hunters around here need training wheels so here's a chance for someone to shoot some serious archery equipment.

I am really glad that it did well, hope the new owner is proud and realizes all that went into it. Has the northern set found its new home and how did it do?   Kenneth
