Planning a Youth Promotional Contest

[KySongDog]

Wow!  What a great prize!!!!     

I guess I need to 'fess up now.  I am really 14 years old.   


Seriously, that prize is going to make some kid very happy.        Kudos to FOsteology.   

[Yotehntr]

Dang! FO  that is off the charts!!! Heck I want  to be a kid again! Well here's 2 of my calls I'll pitch in, let me know where to send 'em.  One is a Crotch walnut call, the other is a Cherry burl, both have an o-ring fitted antler toneboard.

Here is the call I will donate to the contest:

Cocobolo deer call......Adj. tone board

I don't make anything that a kid would want, so I'm going to give three NRA Junior memberships.

  Good idea, thanks Pat.

[alscalls]

Looks like some really great prizes so far.....how are we going to promote this and really get the kids involved?
I mean I would love to see a bunch of kids try for this this time.....The stories could be the real prize...

[HaMeR]

I'm working on a call for the Best Pic Any Species division but I just can't get the sound out of it. Even if I don't figure it out I'll still have something to donate. It just won't be a non-working call. 

[Bills Custom Calls]

HaMer you have to put a reed in the call and then you have to blow into it 

[HaMeR]

   Aint no stinkin reeds in this call Bill!!  

[Bills Custom Calls]

Then dial the right number and a call will be made  :roflmao:

[HaMeR]

   I'm starting to get the sound.  I'll work on it some more 1st. 

[alscalls]

Thats GREAT HaMer!! Good luck.....and I expect to see it.....   You know where to get help if ya need it.

[FinsnFur]

You guys didnt really have to fill this page with your call making discussion did you?

Were going to try and launch this thing tomorrow night, if all goes well. Stay tuned.

[JohnP]

I'm in for a $100 gift certificate from either Cabela's or Bass Pro. 

[FinsnFur]

Ok.....tomorrow night for sure
I'm getting backed up with things and got behind.   Sorry guys.

[iahntr]

Well my original plan was to make up a nice grunt call, or bleat call, depending on what I had for guts.
After some time attempting this, I now remember the other reason(s) why I took a break from
making calls. My tools suck !!  My mandrel is bent up, my little bench top drill press is a wuss, and
my bits are dull.       So considering the lack of time to remedy this in time for this
contest, on to plan B. I will be donating a closed reed call and a coaxer, that I had most of the
way done, just have to put finish on them.  I'll get pictures up, and items sent in the next few days.

I'll get pictures up, and items sent in the next few days.

[HaMeR]

I'll get pictures up, and items sent in the next few days.  

Who are we suppose to send this stuff to?

And by when??

[FinsnFur]

I never mentioned that John.  Was contemplating over the best way to do it.

I'm going to collect everything and then at the end of the contest were not holding the kids up if someone happens to be away or cant ship right away.
A few folks PM'd me on this also, I'll get back to them in case they miss this.
