A deer shoulder mount (valued at 575.00 ) or credit towards another mount of equal or greater value and if the winner is an existing customer with a critter in the works we can throw the $575.00 onto there account. Not redemable for cash. Credit good for say 3 years...
Post by: jackelope on April 25, 2013, 09:16:20 PM
A Black Bear Shoulder mount. Value is $539.50. They can also use the credit towards a Rug, Lifesize, or any other mount they would like.
This will be for new work coming into the shop. Not good for items already in the shop. Not redeemable for cash.
Post by: jackelope on April 25, 2013, 09:20:00 PM
$200 towards taxidermy. The only disclaimer would be that it's not to be applied towards work already in the shop and there is NO expiration date.

I owner/guide Sam Baird of Slammin' Salmon Guide Service would like to offer a fully guided salmon fishing trip for up to 3 people. I guide out of Central Washington, this trip would take place from The mouth of the Okanogan to the Hanford Reach area on the Columbia River, depending on what they choose. This can either be for Sockeye (if we get a season), Summer Run Chinook, or Fall Run Chinook. I'll let the winner choose! This trip will be for 8 plus hours of fishing time. The date and locationand details will be arranged after the end of the auction. Value of this trip is $600. (that is the going rate for all of us guides in the area).

This is a great idea....can we offer up items of lesser value that still may be of interest to people?
Yes but we would appreciate all of it going through us. We've done this sort of thing before and if gone unchecked it becomes wayyyyyy too confusing. We've got some other smaller items already too, I'm just waiting on clarification from Doug on what that stuff is.
I think maybe we'll start the auction on the Phelps call here in a bit....lets say 9:00am. It will run till 9pm tonight.
I'll post a link here to the auction and a seperate thread for it in a bit.

Real good. Thanks.

If you want to sell/auction something off, completely on your own, then handle getting the item to the buyer and the money to the Paypal account Doug has going all on your own, I don't see a problem with that I guess. We've got enough on our plates with this already. It has really blown up. The support from folks on this site and others is mind-blowing.

All good points Jackelope....I've got a one man pop up blind, new, never been used. I'll double check it and make sure it is in perfect condition and will post when appropriate. If it sells I'll be happy to arrange shipping once the check has been received by Dale or whomever is handling it.
Stand by till I get the green light on that from my sidekicks here.

BLRman was the high bidder at $375. Jason agreed to make 2 calls....1 for the high bidder and one for the family. RTSpring came back in a pm to me and said he'd give an additional $375 towards the 2nd call.
That's right...$750.00 total. I was speechless.
2nd auction coming up soon....stay tuned.

There is a lot of stuff that sounds great being donated. Will there be one particular thread to check and see what's available currently? I get confused easily, but want to watch several of these auctions. For example, when will Willow Creek's auction run?
I think I'm going to come up with a list of what happens when. Right now, I am just posting in this thread what is running when.
Maybe I should make a thread thats locked with just the current and upcoming auctions. I'll do that.

I'm not sure there is a way to keep it on top of the "Recent Topics", we will have to ask Dale.
That being said, if anyone sees a current auction slip out of the "Recent Topics" list, feel free to bump it up.

#2 - Working together with Bear Archery we will be donating any standard camo compound bow from Bear Archery's 2013 catalog. Order for bow will be placed with the factory as soon as the winner advises RadSav of what model, draw length, poundage and RH/LH. The 2013 lineup is filled with some really great bows! I myself will be spending most of the upcoming seasons shooting the Motive 7 - one of the three bows I rated as a 2013 over $800.00 top choice.
#3 - Working together with Bowtech Archery we will be donating any standard camo or Black Ops compound bow from Bowtech Archery's 2013 catalog. Order for bow will be placed with the factory as soon as the winner advises RadSav of what model, draw length, poundage and RH/LH. This includes the Experience which I also rated as a 2013 over $800.00 top choice. The only other bow you may see me shooting in the upcoming season.

After consideration on which auction to provide, I think the bow hunt is what we are going with. My intention with the weekend get-a-way for the Blanchard family was to donate the stay and to donate any funds raised through the auction. Looks like it may be very hard for JL to keep track of all who would donate. If BLRMAN wants to PM me I think Wendy and I can still do something for a stay for the family N/C. So here is my auction donation:
Semi-Guided Archery Hunt for two. Arrive afternoon Sept 6th and check out morning Sept. 9th. Here is what you get: Lodging, Meals, Access to private land, Scouting prior to your arrival, stand and blind placement,then you hunt on your own. I will spend the first day showing you where I have seen the game. You can hunt mule deer,whitetail deer, bear, and I have seen a couple elk on one of my leases. Value w/tax is $800
Thank you Jackelope for all your work on these auctions. Let me know what else I need to do. Pics are from a couple of our properties.
