Tom Phillips got a message for you

Kip · January 18, 2010, 09:16:00 PM

Tom for opening weekend of squirrel I made and gave this to my seven year old grandson.I had a bunch of friends and family for our annual weekend of hunting, fun and eating and good times.I played it up that Saturday nite made him take his shirt off put face paint on his face told him bear claws were a bunch of luck, named him Little Running Bear and told him all about my hunt for my bear that summer.He was very proud but the pic is at my camp not on my computer.A couple of weeks ago his sisters dog got a hold of it b/c it was left on the floor and called me crying ,kinda chewed up but Pa-Pa fixed it and his message is to tell Mr. Tom thank you for having the Bear Quest hunts because he really loves his Bear Claw necklace.

I really enjoyed my hunt also

Very cool Kip! I made one very similar to it from my Bear Quest bear, but since I don't have a grandson to give it to I kept it for myself!

maxwell · January 19, 2010, 05:25:00 PM

Very nice- are the claws sharp or do they rip you apart with shear strength?
