I want to nominate my 13 year old grandson Payton Woolridge for this contest.
He hunted 3 day's, unsuccessfully, during the holiday season with the CVA 45 cal caplock I restored to shooting condition, that belonged to his  grandfather Terry Woolridge.
He would love the bag and horn but has connections with the mad bladesmith so :if he wins the knife will go to the next name drawn  dntn

Would like to add a name to the list, my son Jeconiah. Got his first rifle in Sept. and has no gear for it.  Been trying to get him interested for sometime.  He registered on the forum tonight under Jeco.

So what is the status on this giveaway? I offered to throw a dart to select a winner, but have not heard if I am to do that... I later nominated my son Ethan on Jan 20th (after reading the giveaway was to be today, 2/1 in another thread), but then saw that it was supposed to be given away on the 18th. Was the giveaway ,,, givenaway?

unfortunately Tom is incommunicado at the moment.  We believe that he is caught up in the weather and possibly without electric service, so we wait until we hear from Tom.  As of now, the give-away has not been given-away as far as I know.

I'm thinking Tom is caught up in the Ice Storm with no power
My son lives in North Arkansas and just got power back yesterday
We haven't heard from Tom since the 27th
The horn, bag and knife giveaway are on hold until we hear from Tom

Oh my gosh.  We are certainly glad you are ok.  Glad you had a generator.  We had a bad ice storm through here several years ago.  They are a demonsration on just how powerful mother nature is.  Good luck and stay safe!

Right now Tom the most important thing is you and Robin are OK
It is rough recovering from an Ice Storm I went through ours in 94
That's the reason I bought a 10kw generator this past summer, I can run the whole house except for the heat pump and electric range. We have gas emergency heat

Good to hear you are OK
And just be on the lookout for the redneck power crew from Natchez Trace Electric Power Co. they are in southeast Missouri somewhere  dntn

Tom, glad to hear things aren't too, too bad for you. Great to have some survival skills. They do come in handy every now and again.
Hope you get thawed out soon. Take Care.
