Magazine

[biggen]

Good stuff guys and Mark I personally do not have to use excuses! 8) :wink:

[BOBSTER]

Recieved the magazine yesterday. Looks really good. Great job guys. :D

[Chunky]

I just got mine as well, another great job guys. We are getting spoiled.

Gotcha, Brad :wink:

[Tomme]

I'll second, or third, the comments. Lot of good stuff in this one. Keep up the good work.

[bowjunkie]

Ya know....they must really hate Spring, Tx as I am always the last to get the mag (still not here yet)....and I even gave the mail lady a gift certificate this past Christmas. She's OFF my list! 8)

[Cull]

I don't have mine either Mike! Conspiracy? :)

[MILNRICK]

Ditto for Garden Ridge TX... nothing in our mailbox except our pet spider, a Bass Pro flyer and junk. Maybe this PM or tomorrow.

[bowhunter26]

Oh, you mean you have to send it in to get it included? :?

[Mike Harr]

Finnaly got my first mag in the mail yesterday. Seems they didn't know I was a member since June... :) Now if someone can change the name from Mark Harr to Mike Harr... 8)

[LostHawg]

Nothing here either. :?

[LostHawg]

Lost Hawg

Got mine last night. Excellent work folks and kudos to the authors of the stories!

[Ronny]

Ain't made it to Cumby yet

[LostHawg]

Got it today.

Sure wish somethings could be in color. ie, blood trails.

Gonna read the stories in the next few days. Set up looks good, just a little thin.

You are doing a good job Joey. Keep it up, you may get that job with TBM yet. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v161/losthawg/thumbsup.gif

[Cull]

Got mine yesterday. Great job putting this one together guys.

[tinman]

Thanks again guys. We appreciate the feedback.

Tracey, I hear you on the B&W pics. I knew they weren't going to be very good for that article but wanted to run the article. I have been thinking of ways to address that in the future and I think I will add an "editor's note" and direct folks to a thread here to see the pics in color? Might introduce a couple members to the internet forums along the way.

I have also been thinking that this type of thing would be a good way to present material that doesn't make it into the magazine. In the event that we have a surplus of well-written contributions with excellent photos and have to bump material, at least these stories would still be published online and shared with the membership. We haven't really hit that bridge yet but I like to plan BIG! 8) :lol: :roll:

[LostHawg]

Joey, I meant it when I said you're doing a good job. Have no doubt about that. I also went back and looked at the magazine again and noticed the print seems to be a bit smaller, which would explain the thinness. You got a lot of articles packed into those pages and they're some good reading too.

I think the B&W thing as been going for quite a while. Like when I did the article on bodark. Those pictures I sent in looked real good in color. The lack of color definitely made a difference in picture quality. Maybe y'all could discuss this at the next EC?

Seriously, keep up the good work.

Also, if you ever want me to proof read an article for spelling/grammar, feel free to email it my way. I wrote a lot of reports and citations in the Air Force. Even wrote a manual or two.

Tracy (no "e")

[NDNRoger]

Well crud! :x Which one of you stole my mag!

I usually have it by now!

[Chunky]

We need to find out what the deal is with the mailing. It seems like this happens every issue. The magazine should not be arriving over several weeks to different people....something is wrong in the process.

[tinman]

Sorry about the "e" again, Tracy. Thanks for the offer to help, why don't you send in some more articles? That would be a big help. E-mail me, we can put our heads together and come up with some good subject matter.

Me either, Roger. The pony has never made it to Rowlett...maybe tomorrow... :cry:

I agree, Mark. I assumed it had always been this way because of the bulk postage rate we use. Has it not?

[bowjunkie]

The lag in the mailing "is" due to the bulk mailing procedures. It has always been like this it seems with certain areas receiveing it timely and other areas always a week or two behind. Maybe due to that particular sorting facility having more bowhunters who keep the mags in the break room enjoying it for a week before grudgingly sending them along :?:

Maybe Joey and Roger need to make the cover ugly, instead of the great photos/printing they have been using, so that they wont be tempted to hang on to the mag anymore 8)

[hogslayer]

Bulk mail is always handled as space available...the postage costs to change this would be unreal....just handle the patience and stop the "book fever" ha ha you probably can deal with the Buck fever, now book fever....

[LostHawg]

I know Mike, we could put Tomme's or Hogslayer's, avatar on the cover. Or both. That'd fix 'em. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v161/losthawg/just2funny.gif

[Ronny]

I think my mag got lost some where. Anyone else missing theres.

[NDNRoger]

Don't have mine yet either. Might have to email someone to send me an extra and find out if my name got bumped off the mailing list.

[tinman]

You guys aren't off the list...unless I am too! :lol:

I got an e-mail from another member (also lives here in Rowlett) that hadn't seen thier copy yet either. It'll get to us soon I hope.

[bowjunkie]

-Give a shout at Janie Lassman and have your names checked on the membership rolls. Should of had the mag by now as they went to the P.O. a month ago and also Losthawg is ALWAYS the last to get his 8)

[NDNRoger]

LOL! I know Tracy is the last to receive one, that is why I was freaking out!

[tinman]

Just got back from doing a job in Flint, TX for the last 3-days...no mag here yet either.... :? :cry: :evil:

[Ronny]

The mailman found my house. Great job guys.

[Tomme]

I think that this needs to be discussed at the meeting. We have far too many people not getting their magazines. This could be happening anywhere from our mailing list to the Post Office, but we need to get this fixed.

[NDNRoger]

It is very odd that I still do not have mine yet.

Anyone have extras? I have some ads I can sell if I have the latest issue to give out. Plus, I actually had a couple of so called stories. LOL
