Bowzone.ca Christmas Gift Exchange!

[WOOKIE]

Let's spread a little Bowzone Christmas Cheer!

Yes I know it is early October, but lets get a "Secret Santa" type gift exchange going.

1. Post your intention to participate in this thread.
2. PM me your full name and address.
3. I will send you a return PM with an Bowzone member's name, address and Username.
4. Send an "hunting themed" gift to the name you received in step 3.
5. Wait for your gift to show up in the mail.

Gifts could be books, hunting DVD's, releases, arrows, a weekend of hunting, deer call, elk decoy etc. Whatever your heart desires with the exception of prohibited items. Just make sure it is hunting related. There is no set money limit on the gifts.

IF YOU DON'T INTEND TO SEND A GIFT, PLEASE DON'T SIGN UP.

You can keep your gift anonymous, or you can send a card or PM the recipient to let them know the gift is from you.

Lets have fun with this!

Once I have 5 PM's I will start sending out return PM's.

This will remain open from now until November 8th. I will close the thread then so all gifts can reach the recipient by Christmas.

It should be fine. I'm going to start doing stuff once I can't go out hunting after work which will be the 1st week of November. I don't think it would be wise to torture anyone outside of my circle of friends just yet :wink:

Secrect Santa Rules

[Travski]

what you get?

[langille5]

Travis:
Sorry on the delay for the gift. I found it a little hard to pick something out for you. Not to much to purchase in Tulita, so I had to wait until I made a trip to Yellowknife or Inuvik. I sent out your package. Hopefully it doesn't take Canada Post to long to get it to you. Hopefully you like it. Once you get it I can give you a bit of background about it. Here is a hint. It is home made by a person from the Yukon.
Robin

[Travski]

It's was an awesome package with a knife a ball hat some calls a dvd and a treestand lock. It's awesome......:super_hap
