First, I'd like to say Thanks to all who participated in the contest. It made the season very suspenseful to see how many birds were going to be entered. And I believe it was a giant success. Thanks again!!!

For you winners: You will need to PM the person who has the prize and make arrangements on delivery of the prize. If you have trouble reaching them, PM Pacman or myself and we can try to get ahold of them also.

What I did was assigned everyone a card. I then put all the prizes in a "hat". Mixed up the cards and prizes and had the wife draw a card and a prize. So I had nothing to do with who got what. Congrats to the winners and lets hope we can top this next season.

Alexus- $25 cash (pm Pacman)
Riley- turkey call (pm Pacman)
Ben S- knife (pm Gary Bottger)
Jacob- Nebraska mount (pm Thew_077)
Chantelle- Turkey call (pm Mottz)
Amy- Plaque from ECM (pm-ECM Outdoors)
Colby- Leatherman-(pm Pacman)

CONGRATULATIONS EVERYONE!!!

Its not about the prizes. Its about the kids getting out there. I didn't start hunting til I was 28 or 29. So all these kids may not realize how lucky they are to have parents show them another option to do. When my son gets old enough, you can count on me to get him out there. Congratulations to everyone!!

A special thanks to all the guys who put up the awesome prizes, my daughter was almost as excited to hear she won as when she got her first turkey. By giving kids a fun positive experience of hunting and being in the outdoors hearing all the sounds of wildlife, seeing the trees and plants blooming and the physical exercise of hiking up and down the hills, crossing a little stream, going to the bathroom outdoors and watching grandpa take a snooze under the tree will be something my daughter hopefully will never forget.
Again you guys are the best thanks for all you do.
