Last week I received a box in the mail from Gus. When I let him know it was here he asked about the second box.  :-\ Well, it still hasn't got here yet. I guess a postal worker somewhere between Houston and here is enjoying whatever it is.  >:(
 Anyway, inside the first box was a very cool, hand carved osage arrow wrench which I will use often and a 91", yes I said 91" dried red tail boa skin. This thing is incredibly beautiful. I'll save it for a very special project. Here are a few pics...
  the arrow wench...




..and the boa skin. The bow next to it is 68"t/t...


...even the head was skinned out...


 Thanks for the wonderful gifts Gus. We'll keep checking with the PO about the lost box.

received my gift from JW and I'm stoked, got a cool jar of black hills gold, some of JW's honey, a sweet bow sock, a complete fire starting kit a couple of bees wax candles, and that awesome tool box that I will be filling with my bow building tools, that is an actual arrow shaft and trade point inletted in the side, and very well done, my wife actually said " this is the coolest gift you have gotten in the exchange" and I agree, thank you JW all items will be well used , Bub

Hey Sir, (PatB)

While I am pleased you like the Arrow Wrench and Red Tail Skin...
I will not let USPS mess this gift up.
If the original doesn't show up I'll make another.
And this time place it into your hand at The Classic...

I do apologise for the delay.

Best Regards,

-Bryan

I have no idea when i got mine, but i did.  I found a package from Matt G under my front deck.  A little wet from the rain we got several days ago.  Luckily the arrows and broadhead knife look untouched.  Thanks Matt.  They look great.  I will put up a pic later today.

USPS finally came through for me and delivered a very cool walking stick from Gus. It fits me perfectly and has cool turquoise inlays, especially my initials and Gus' signature. Very interesting tip that should give good traction on almost any surface. Here are a few pics...








Thanks Gus. The walking stick, red tail boa skin and arrow wrench are great gifts for the Christmas Trade and all very useful..

Sweet stick.  Love the inlay.  Is that the kind of tip that screws off so a rubber end, for indoor use, can be screwed on?
