Title: TRAD GANG DAY 5
Post by: Terry Green on March 20, 2003, 05:39:00 PM
I would like to welcome all members that have joined us so far, and those yet to come.  We never expected such a surge of membership so quickly.  What was jokingly considered, in a 3 to 6 month time frame, was more bandwidth.  The morning of day four, it became a serious consideration, due to the expansion on day three. Rob said "We're going to need unlimited band with, and NOW"!!!  My jaw dropped to say the least.

This site is dedicated to the Traditional Bowhunter, and we hope you enjoy Trad Gang as much as we have so far. 

We have a few things we are working on that will add more member participation than is already available, and more forums for you to visit.

This site has a lot of features, and you have to gradually stalk them.  Take your time, and before long, you will know it as well as your favorite wood lot.  I'm still stalking myself.

Thanks for joining us,

Ah yes...bandwidth. :-) Things are loading up snappy on my rig. And I like what I see.

Hey Ray, my son Chan cranked up a 2 1/2 year old gobbler this morning about 8:30. Say's he got in and out without spooking him. We don't need any super educated birds busting bowhunters on May 5th!!!:-)

BC,

 I here ya. Tyler's going to use a 20 guage this year since he's just turning 12 and this will be his first hunting experience. Dad's going to be backing him up with that trusty SS Samurai you see in my picture, but I have a feeling dad's going to be too excited watching his young man grow up to be much of a backup.   :D  

 Ah, the joys of parenthood, which hopefully will offset the other "teenage" stuff that pops up from time to time.   "[dntthnk]"  

Good luck with that bird. I'm going to keep looking for that uneducated one and get him all tied up.   ;)

I like the idea that you have to register to post. I know it's a pain for some, but the zeros who post anonymously are even more a pain. This way we know each other even better and we know who we are talking to.Thanks Terry.

Shawn, we put up a recipe forum 3 days ago, you must have missed it.  Check it out.

It's been a week now, and this is the most fun I've had for 7 days in a long time.  Other than bowhunting that is.   :saywhat:

Van, would you do a little scouting while you're out and let me know if you see any good rocks ? I'm going to be doing a kind of paralel study to Dr. Ashby's and need more rocks to test broadheads on.
