Title: Thanks, it's been a dream come true
Post by: Mike Mecredy on August 21, 2009, 11:30:00 AM
It's been a year now and several weeks since I left my great paying job, to put all my efforts into Maddog Traditional Archery.  My family has been a big help,  my wife stood by me, and kept the same faith that I hold, knowing God won't let us go without.  Never has, never will.

I personally thank each customer, and for Vermonster 13, for contracting me (verbally, that's all he and I need) to build the youth bows each month, and for those that promote my bows.  

I don't know off hand how many I've build this year but I'm starting on my 3rd gallon of epoxy since February, this week.  

I've had a few failures (5 I think) come back to me for replacement/repairs and you know who you are, and I thank you for keeping it between us and allowing me to fix the problems.  I guess it keep me humble.

All the best to everyone and thanks again.  

-Mike

What a season we are going to have this year!  The Prowler is going to start filling tags in less than a month.  I'll be doing more solo hunts this year so, in a way, it's just going to be you and me in the woods.  Let's go get 'em!

My daughter loves her "Pup", and I am fretting the day she outgrows it.  What a great little shooter it is!  Congrads on a year gone by, and whishes for many more.

Don't know the bows Mike; but, if they're like your integrity & character they're quality. God Bless you & family always.

Yeah...I need to get one with that old Pearson you fixed up for me.  I've got yours and one other to make good on.  It's a good shooting bow.  Really means a lot to have it in good working order.  My boy also has gotten a lot of enjoyment out of his, too.  Keep up the good work.  Lookin' forward to gettin' that Bear curve you're fixin' for me, too.  But, like I said before, I've got plenty to hunt with, so take care of all the guys who need theirs for this fall.  Thanks for your fine workmanship.
