Contest is Over
 

Do y'all remember that contest for the no expenses paid hunt at AF Hunter's place? Well, it's over as far as I am concerned. This evening was my last chance to bow hunt before shotgun season starts. I sat in the stand until it was too dark to shoot and didn't see a single deer until I was ready to get out of the stand to walk home. So, since for Phase II of the contest no one said I would get skunked, I have to do something to bring this contest to an end with a winner.

IfGMMAT agrees, here's what I am going to do:
1. I am going to PMGMMAT with a letter of the alphabet;
2. Of those entered in the original contest, PM me with what letter of the alphabet you think I picked;
3. Each person gets one guess only;
4. The person who PM's me with the right letter first - Wins.
5. If no one guesses the right letter by Sunday 2 Dec 07 @ 5:00 PM CST, I will take the names of all those who guessed and draw one out of a hat.

This is the only sensible solution I can come up with.

Good Luck and please make comments on this thread to keep it towards the top of the first page until at least Sunday afternoon.

Sincerely,

MSgt Cooper

Sure. I'll send you my guess after I get your PM.

(jk);)

RE: Contest is Over
 

Jeez, were you in the original contest?

RE: Contest is Over
 

No. Joking;)

RE: Contest is Over
 

Phew! I already sent you the PM! It would have been a short final solution to the contest!

RE: Contest is Over
 

I was not if you want me to handle it.

RE: Contest is Over
 

lol, 10-4:D

RE: Contest is Over
 

Crap - I figured I'd have had several guesses by now, but only one! Guess the one guesser stands a better and better chance of winning as each minute passes.

RE: Contest is Over
 

:eek:

RE: Contest is Over
 

Germ, in case you didn't know, Iowa deer don't spoon, so you wouldn't want to win anyway! lol:D

RE: Contest is Over
 

Gotta love MOBOW! He just sent me his guess for the letter I picked and his guess was "7"!

Just ribbing ya MOBOW

RE: Contest is Over
 

Sev....oh yeah.....it WAS 7!! Awwww man, supposed to be a letter huh? Shoot, I always get confused on that ......

RE: Contest is Over
 

I know you get confused MOBOW that's what make you special. It's like the time they asked you your favorite color and you answered "Apple". Keep trying, you'll get it right............someday. I typed this real slow cause I know you can't read very fast.

:)

RE: Contest is Over
 

Dude, you gotta slow down......Quit using such big words like....."apple".......:eek:[8D]

RE: Contest is Over
 

He was thinking the 7th letter in the alphabit, which is "G";) Which means he was thinking about me

Pervert:eek:

RE: Contest is Over
 

Uuuuuuuummmmmmmmm..........yeah, that's it.....:eek:

RE: Contest is Over
 

Uuuuummmmmm.......TMI!

RE: Contest is Over
 

Hey! Don't you have a buck to go shoot or something??? :D:D

j/k bud....j/k

RE: Contest is Over
 

Yeah rub in the fact you got your first buck this year (even though I got one last year), but if you and germ are going to talk like that, you could at least take in the closet first! LMAO

RE: Contest is Over
 

I missed something and I am thinks it is a good thing.

RE: Contest is Over
 

Don't ask, don't tell, fly boy:D

RE: Contest is Over
 

I thought we has some sort of contest:eek:

RE: Contest is Over
 

Pm sent

RE: Contest is Over
 

And I just want to be in the contest.:(

RE: Contest is Over
 

I guess "P" and send my winning prize to soemone who can afford it!


Heck this jogs my memory...I won a contest on here already..wonder where them arrows are????? [8D]

RE: Contest is Over
 

Didn't win them arrows from me though!

RE: Contest is Over
 

Hunting ain't over Zoomie!

RE: Contest is Over
 

Well Mark did I win or not????? Kinda need some new arrows but you gotta make them long ones due to my ape arms LOL.

RE: Contest is Over
 

16 Minutes left for the people who were in the original contest I ran to guess the letter. No right guess yet. Twildasin hasn't piped up yet plus a bunch of others!!

RE: Contest is Over
 

Time is up!.....and the winner is....................

RE: Contest is Over
 

????

RE: Contest is Over
 

I've drawn the name and thank goodness MOBOW wasn't in the original contest! That would have been a long hunt! "No Mobow - that is a squirrel." "No, that's a coyote." "No MOBOW! Don't shoot the neighbors sheep!" I am sending a PM to the winner and he/she can post their good fortune on the thread.

RE: Contest is Over
 

I WON, I WON!!
Holy Sheep Dip!!! I never win anything!!
I am so there!!! I will tell you right now that I fully intend on doing everything, within my power, tomake the trip!!
Too sweet!! Thanks a million AF Hunter!!!!

RE: Contest is Over
 

Yer kiddin me???? I actually guessed it RIGHT??? OMG that's funny stuff right there...

And....it wouldn't have been THAT long of a hunt......Sheesh, I know the busy tail of a red sheep when I see one...:eek:[&:]

RE: Contest is Over
 

That's right folks, vikesfan353 won the contest and has been sent instructions. Once I have the property managed properly and have the cabins built, I am thinking of opening up a contest on an annual basis. What better way to meet new friends and introduce different people to the good old fashioned lifestyle of Iowa living.

BTW - for those of you who tried my chili recipe, it won another cookoff last night at the squadron and now I will be retiring from the military as an undefeated champion. Of course after testing it throughout the day yesterday before the judging I needed a gallon of ice cream last night to help with the fire. lol

RE: Contest is Over
 

AF Hunter, thanks for doing this and good luck guys.

RE: Contest is Over
 

Rob,I came upon a value years ago when my daughter had an assignment to get definitions of words from her parents. We went through several vocabulary words and came upon the word "wealth". I thought about it for a few seconds and the following definition to me. "Wealth is not measured by the amount of worldy goods you have, but by how long and how fondly you are remembered after you are gone." It was pretty much the value that my grandparents had given to me in my youth.

I have served this great country since 1975 and now that I am retiring, what better way to make an impression on others than something like this. After Brad has had his hunt, I hope that he will have had a hunt that will give him fond memories for years to come. Then maybe he'll go back home and do something for someone else (the ole pay it forward effect).

When you really think about it, what have I done other than made an effort to make a new friend?

RE: Contest is Over
 

RESPECT!

RE: Contest is Over
 

And next year when the question is "What day of the year will I fill my tag?" and Mobow's answer is "Apple", that's another year I won't have to hunt with him!

RE: Contest is Over
 

Yeah, but that answer is strictly designed to throw everyone off the trail....A guy can't give away ALL of his secrets.....;)
