Good Friend

Post by Raymond »

Let me tell you all about a good friend on this site. I have never met this person face to face, I hope to someday. One day not long ago I was interested in buying some items off of the Trading Post. I was interested in buying some arrows. This friend sent me an email and wanted my mailing address, and it wasn't the person that I was trying to buy the arrows from. I received a package in the mail from this friend. And guess what, it was six beautiful Custom Made Gold Tip Laser II arrows. This friend did not want any money for these. I have asked numerous times and the answer is still "never mind". How is that for a friend. And like I said, and this is the best part, I have never met this person face to face. So Wes, aka Limbs and Bolts, I figure you wouldn't want me to do this. But, I think since you will not accept any money for these and I cannot meet you face to face yet, I think you deserve a public "THANK YOU", from me on this forum.
THANK YOU MY FRIEND.

Raymond, this kind of generosity from one Excalibur forum member to another isn't all that surprising. The folks on this forum are a different breed of sportsmen and woman and I for one am glad to be a part of. When I joined the forum in 2002 after my injury, my wife had to use the rope cranker to crank my bow because I was unable to pull it back on my own. Then out of nowhere, a forum member that I didn't know asked for my address and in 3 days there was a brand new crankaroo at my door. :wink: . I try to pay it forward whenever I can and that's what makes this place so special. Congrats on the arrows and Wes, that was very thoughtful of you.
God Bless !!!!!!!!!

I know what you mean Raymond, Wes sent me a half dozen arrows also.
That's just the kind of guy he is. Wes will help in any way he can.
He is a good friend.

Gee Wes, I could use a half dozen of those my self, just kidding, :lol: that was a very nice gesture.
I had a similar thing happen to me on here, forum member Mark Laramie, aka Bird Dog, sent me a set of stock sights, and wouldn´t accept any money for them.
What a great bunch of people on here.

when i got laid off from work just four days after i bought my excalibur things didnt look very good.

that weekend a package arrived from ohio with a new varizone scope complete with rings from a forum member.

i am pretty sure it was the same member who helped out Ray D with the crankaroo.
If it isn't hectic, it isn't hunting!
