Title: Why I am proud to be a member here
Post by: Ranger58 on March 17, 2011, 09:08:00 PM
Just another post about the honesty and integrity of the people on this site.  I just completed a transaction through the classifieds for a '58 Kodiak Special with someone I didn't know from Adam.  I truly think that the members here are cut from a different mold, one that doesn't get much recognition in today's world.  I'd like to let you all know that any dealings with hootie c, will far exceed your expectations.  He was a definite pleasure to deal with.  Thanks Joey!

Ditto above.  I will say I have had excellent dealings with many of you tradgangers on the classifieds.  Also, I have made some real nice friends.  Mostly, folks I never knew just made me feel welcome and invited me to shoot or go to a show.  It jsut feels good to know there are quality people around, and lots of them hang out here.

Bob.

I have never hesitated to complete a transaction with anyone on here.  It is very comforting to know that good people still exist and have the same interest as me.

We have never had any troubles, rudeness, or complaints. Also, I have to say, (sorry guys and gals), I just love "Guru's" comments, as they are always most informative and well thought-out.   ;)

I love your tag line.

To demonstrate, a while back I was shooting an open indoor 3D event with the back target at pretty much 50 yards and to say I broke a few arrows would be an understatement.

I ended up with a 660 grain 2219 and a 415 grain 500 spine carbon shooting two arrows from each station for the second go round. I shot well enough to beat one person shooting a compound.

If you stay out of your own way it is amazing what your instincts will sort out.

Ranger58 - I couldn't agree more. I just picked up 2 really nice bows from 2 different trad ganger's (one for me, one for a buddy) and I do not think the transaction could have gone any smoother. Nice follow up and packaging from both guys. Everything arrived as promised - which holds a lot of weight for me. I am a firm believer in do what you say you are going to do or your word means nothing. Thanks again Charlie and TW! Hopefully one day we can share a real campfire!

I had a phone conversation with Mike Fedora sr.
a couple years back. He said something that stuck
with me. "most people who shoot traditional are
a more conservative grassroots mentality.those
who are switching from compounds to traditional
are most of the time looking for that also."

Every bow I have, except one, came from dealings with posters on this site...the other one came from my wife. I have seen no other site on the web, regardless of flavor, that even comes near to this site for integrity, good manners, and good information. Not to mention that no other site has an expert milliner like Mudd!   :D

"I have never met a tradganger that I didn't like".... LOL Ok now that is my saying. None of you steal that now... Ha Ha

All kidding aside, I have had great transactions here as well. I have been trading with many here and the honesty and ethics I've encountered are really above par.

Thanks to all,

Bill
