Check it out

IF you win the turkey hunt and can not afford to get there for it. There is even plans to help with that. What more could we ask for?!?!
I am humbled that so many of my friends want to help drive this offer over the edge. To be quite honest, I thought that it would have been a bigger hit than it has so far. Hoping that it will pick up at the end. Maybe I should have just put it up for bid? anyway, all is good . every dollar for the kids is one they don't have.
Nearing 3 grand is a big hit. I'm not sure if anything else has topped $2,000. Could be wrong.
I like what's happening, but, there are many other items added that make this a great opportunity for those otherwise not able to compete with high bidders. (like me)
I hope this type bidding is repeated next year and on alot more items. (Sunset Hill bow comes to mind...I NEVER had a chance on that one.)
I appreciate what you've done Don.
And the fat lady hasn't sung yet.
C'mon everyone get over to auction 5 and buy a ticket!! My gosh, a turkey hunt, hog hunt, arrows, broadheads, primitive bow and arrows, gas card, license, transportation, you ain't gonna find a better opportunity than this. I think I just talked myself into another ticket - see you over on the auction 5 page.
Not putting it up for a bid but instead doing the raffle is a good choice, it gives everyone a chance at an awesome hunt. This is what TradGang is about :thumbsup:
And if the winner chooses not to go, then maybe they will decide to put it up for a bid and the kids at St Jude will benefit even more.
up
Well, looks like I have time to go back and get me another chance!

I can't get too worked up about yardbirds but hunting with Joey and Batman is always a blast. But I can speak about Marty's addition cause I was a member on his place for a few years and hunted there with him for years!
The hunting is some of the best you'll find ANYWHERE. The place is loaded with species from hogs to gators and you will not find a more gracious host. Marty always has everything ready and will pass up a chance to hunt himself if it will give his guest a better chance.
We all say the hunt is only part of the trip. After nearly 20 years hunting with Marty, I heartily confirm that camp is every bit as much fun!
$20 is an unbelievable price for a chance at this package!
*AWESOME*!!!

Big heart Don. God Bless.
Don, i think your offering for St. judes is awesome. to the other legends of TG to step up and sweeten the pot, just makes it that much better. i can only wish that i was in a position to participate. i cant keep up with the big dogs this year. thanks and appreciation to Don and the legends for what they do for the children that dont have, you fellas are amazing. rv
Don is well known in NC and about for his hunting skills. Though I haven't had the privilege of hunting with him, I have heard numerous stories and recommendations. A chance to hunt at Marty's and with someone who's becoming a legend is the kind of backdrop from which lifetimes memories are formed. It's to good of a chance to miss, and for a cause that is huge. Now, what are you waiting for?
:archer2:
Man, I can't believe this hasn't gone through the roof yet guys!
Come on, open those hearts and pocketbooks. I know things are rough around the country, but $20 for a chance at this kind of adventure. We aren't asking for the Benjamin, just an Andrew.
Thanks Don Ward and have a happy Veterans Day. DB
Bump'n for Bernie!!
We're $180 away from $3,000.
If you're considering it, please post up.
The children at St Jude Children's Research Hospital appreciate it.
TRADGANGERS RESPOND!!!!!!!!!
Right now we're at $3020 for St. Jude on this auction item alone!!!!!!!!!

This is one of the best opportunities out there for you to contribute to St Jude's and have a chance at TWO world class hunting opportunities. I certainly can't compete with some of the big boys on a straight up auction, but I can shake out $20 or $100 bucks for a donation to a great cause and the chance to get a go on TWO great hunts! We need to get this thing over $5000!
$10000 is a great number too!!!
Great job....I'll get my cash headin that way.
ttt
Cory invited me for dinner Saturday night so if I owe the winner any money, he can collect then...
Momentum has slowed.......
WHY??????????
We're only $700 away from $4,000 on this hunt of a lifetime x2!!!!
Are there seven more champions of the cause out there in for a Benjamin??? Or maybe 35 more at a Jackson each????????
Do what you can. Any help at all is appreciated. :)
WAY TO GO MARTY!!!! :biglaugh: :biglaugh: :biglaugh:

Good luck with that!!!
I'm not trying to speak for Bernie (ber643) but here is his first post ( I think) upon returning from hospital. If you've never been around Bernie then you've never seen how kids and smiles and dinosaurs are all synonymous. Each year Bernie contributes so much to the St. Jude's auction in donations, time, and cheering that his absence here was noticed immediately.
Get well quick Bernie. We've been waiting for your safe return!!
Bernie's post and request for more bids to benefit the children of St. Jude:

I'm home now - on "semi-release (with daily home nursing visits) and will be making a few short posts, here and there, as I can (What else would you expect from a short ol' "Mini-grunt"?)
Feeling fair to middlin' - all things considered (and so humbled by God's, and my friends and familie's, grace.
If you would like to do any little thing for the ol' jarhead then: PLEASE PUMP BATMAN'S UNPRECEDENTED HUNT OFFER FOR THE CHILDREN OF ST.JUDE for the last two days of this auction (that I've so shamelessly been absent for) and in the bonus days afterward, that Terry has so generously given us, you, and the precious kids.
Gos bless you all, God bless us all.
(This can also stand as one of the most memorable Memorial Day Weekends and St. Jude Auctions this humble servant has ever spent!)
ENTER NOW AND HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET A TIPPIT KNIFE in addition to hunting turkey and hogs with Batman and Marty!
