RE: What NOT to look for in outfitter (Trophyseekers Worldwide)
Just to let everybody know, Tony did send an apology back to me (shown below). Too late though....First impressions and actions go a long way, and if someone is an ass this quick in an email, you can guess how he'd be in the woods with you. At least he had the decency to realize what he did and apologized......:
Dear Scott,
My apologies if my earlier reply seemed abrupt. That was not my intent. I admit my wording was poorly chosen, and I take responsibility for that. Right now during the show season, I am on the road 80% of the time, and I try to answer all my inquiries while I am home so I can deal with each potential client personally. That is easier for me to accomplish, and far less time consuming by phone than by composing emails for each of dozens and dozens of inquiries.
The fact is I get many requests from persons who want information, but refuse their phone numbers by filling in the required field with “dummy” data. And I accept their right to their privacy. Some, as with yourself may not have a phone or have a problem with their phone. Usually they tell me as much in the message section of the inquiry form.
Again…If I blew it with you…I accept that. No one is perfect. The message here is merely that if I “slighted” you, it was not intentional. Good luck in your search for a hunt.
Regards,
Tony Ruggeri
