Good evening Tradgangers.

My lovely Wife made me this pack basket for my 40th birthday.  She really got one over on me this time.  I usually guess what she's getting me, but this time I had no clue, and she spent weeks making it for me.



I've wanted one for a long time now, can you tell how happy I am?



Now I just need to figure out how to take it hunting with me, maybe a canoe hunting trip or something.

Oh yeah, she got me a set of 70# limbs for my Bear takedown A riser.  They shoot great.

Maybe God will send me a deer for my birthday.

Tom

I would say you made out like a Bandit for Your Birthday!! Congrats!!

Great job on the basket....and a set of limbs, you got a keeper there!     Your a lucky man!

I would say that is a keeper. Basket and wife! She did a great job.  

Very Nice,congrats.

Tom, Happy Birthday my friend       Mandi is a true craftsman.. ah ah craftswoman for sure. Love that basket!

Somebody loves you!  Nicely done to your Mrs.
That will hold an elk quarter easily

Good on ya buddy, sounds like you got a helluva wife!  I have 2 pack baskets ... they are nice for hiking, hunting and real nice for canoeing.  

Bob.

Happy Birthday!

Thats the same size basket I use for trapping and all sorts of things, But your wife makes a better looking basket.

Beautiful work!    

Tracy

Wow, lucky you!! I wish I had one like that.... most of my hunting is done in canoes!!

JACKPOT! Your wife does great work. That is a wonderful present.

That's a great looking basket there.   Best way you can "pay her back" is by packing out your deer with it!   Or at least parts of it.   That's a fine gift for sure.

Cool  

I have one just about like it. I love it for hanging stands and building ground blinds. I can carry lots of stuff in that thing. I also take gear to my shows with it.

You wife did a great job. Congrats to you both.
A great gift for sure.

Wow....good looking basket.  I've been wanting one of those for awhile now.  Think she could do a "how to build" post?  

Oh yeah....Happy Birthday.  

Very nice pack. She did ya up proud.

I actually use a pack basket for my hunting. I have a 1/4mile hike back into my cabin and I have found that I can load up my pack basket with about anything. I just dump it all in and away I go. Works great for me.

You are blessed!  Happy 40th.
