Last week I was shooting in my back yard for the Tradgang Fun shoot, and my last string broke. So I posted on the fun shoot forum that I wasn't going to be able to post a score because it was my last string and it takes about a week before I can get a new one. Not looking for anybody to take pitty just letting them know to put me down for a 0.

Shortly after that I get a PM from Mudd, asking what my address is. After a few PM's he sent me four strings no questions asked and wanting nothing in return. Now I still consider myself new to tradgang and admire so many of you on here, Mudd being one of them. In one of the PM's Mudd sent, he gave me his number and asked me to call him. To be honest I was a little nervous because I mean its Mudd! I think anybody that spends much time on Tradgang knows who Mudd is, to me he's "a big deal." He's just one of those guys I've never met but look up to.

So after trying to not be so nervous I gave him a call. We talked for about 15 minutes like we're neighbors. I was so excited after I got off the phone I told my wife I talked to MUDD! LOL she just looked and me and said "that's cool", I said "DANG RIGHT ITS COOL! It's Mudd!"

Anyways, I just wanted to show Mudd my appreciation of the string and I hope I didn't embarrass you. I think its just awesome how so many of us haven't met but it feels like we're family. So thank you Mods and everybody here for making this a special place, and a daily stop for me. THANK YOU ALL!!!  

I know that feeling well.....

This place is simply amazing          

You say Mudd gave you strings? Mudd, the Mudster, bow buyin/tradin/sellin Mudd, Roy, same guy in here everyday...GAVE you strings!!? Get someone down there quick.., he's having a heatstroke!! He knows I'm kidding. Mudster is a cut above.

Cool story!  Seems like the way things often go around here, it is what makes this a special place.

Mudd is a special man among special men .

Don't pay any attention to who you think he is!
After all his name is "Mudd"!
                       
Sorry Mudd, just couldn't help myself......

Thats Mudd in your eye! LOL Welcome to Tradgang.

Thanks guys for the kind words.

"Robin Hood" hats, strings and other such things are just that.. things/stuff.

The important "things" aren't things at all, they are folks just like me,..... no worse,... no better,...... but people who love to love... and be loved.

I'm not talking about the sentiment of love but the action of it.

Me and my crowd(ZI)  ...yes!(I am a crowd all by myself)

"ZI" believe we are put here to love others especially those who don't look or sound just like us.

My world is just a better place when "ZI" have someone "ZI" can help....ie..show love!

God bless,Mudd

How cool is that?  Way, I am saying!

       Another example of the great people on here.

The world would be a better place if there were more tradgangers and especially like Mudd.

Some people are just born to lead by outstanding example.  His name is Mudd.  And we should listen to him.  He flat out rocks!    

Great story!  Just another example of how nice folks are on this site.

Yes Mudd is pretty awesome guy, But snakebit40 have you ever seen him in tights. Very, Very scary stuff. Sorry Mudd, you are a good man.

I think Mudd would give you the shirt off his back. I hope he never offers his tights....
     

And remember when kids would threaten to change your name to "mud" if you did something "wrong?!"

Guess that's not such a bad name after all!    

         
Never read one discouraging, bad, negative.... remark from MUDD.  He has to be one of the most positive, encouraging and kind individuals around.  I never skip ANY post by him!!!!!
