Welp,went to our annual NWTF banquet last night and donated graciously to the cause.Watched everyone around win somethin.But yes I know it was for a good cause and yes I'll be back next year!!!!Sure had fun though!!

Sounds like you had a super time!! I missed ours this year for the first time in a great while. I just had other things going on that particular night!![&:]

Bob, I went to our chapter's Friday night, Well actually I got there at 10am and helped set up (got home at 130am). I did win an Ameristep Grizzly Lock on stand (now if i can figure out how to hunt turks from it[8D]) I also won a couple of calls and bought a couple of nice prints. It was a great time.

Hey dont feel like the Lone Ranger Bob,

That happens to me every year. In fact, this year I spent WAAAAY to much money in there - A WHOLE lot more than I told my wife about and still scored a BIG 0.
I go slap crazy with all of that stuff- Our chapter was raffleing off something like 20 guns and so many prints that I said to myself - "Self, theres NO POSSIBLE Way you can walk out of here tonight empty handed. The chances are better on getting hit by lighting- Good thing I'm not a betting man to-
Funny thing to- I come home all depressed and my wife says ' I see you didnt win anything AGAIN. - Like I needed to be demoralized anymore then I was- If she didnt cook so freakin good I woulda run her off.

Yeap me too, I went last night and out of a couple hundred dollars worh of tickets I won a decoy, But we did have a great time, And can't wait until the next one LOL.

Hey,I'm glad I'm not alone.Over the years I've spent alot of $$$ at these functions and never won a thing.I always have a great time and the money is for a good cause so It's ok.But just once lol

LOL Jalva, how come that is so easy for us to understand and our better halves see it so differently?

Isn't that the truth strut...when I was walking out the door I got that we dont need anything else speech!!!!By the way glad to see your up and around!

The last two years I said that I wasnt going to go in there and blow a butt load of money, but it never fails I can say that all the way thru the parking lot and into the front door but once I make it thru that door, all bets are off- I even went so far as to "NOT" stop at the ATM for cash- But soon found out that they had the Credit Card machines up and running at the Banquet-
They got every angle covered for a poor sole with no Will Power!

I hear what you're sayin Strut.Funny thing is with all the money I spent tryin to win stuff I coulda just bought it,ooops come to think of it I did. shhhhhh
