Could anyone that's been here since before our crowd took over give a shout-out? You guys got dibbs on things here...we don't want to leave you out. Thanks, Stephanie <P>------------------<BR>I may be little but this miss knows her deer!

LittleMissDeer,<P> I'm Paul. Been here a few months after i got sick of the coffee shop. Don't realy post to much but when i have an idea of what i'm talking about i'll do my best to help.<P> Welcome,<P> Paul

Jack here. Been here almost since the beginning, it seems. I can tell you that Rick has been this way all along. I'm glad for him.

I'm here Steph! Howdy boys and girls. )<BR>mssgn<P>------------------<BR>Mike

Been here since the begining, but hung out at shooters a lot as well. Sure glad this place exists and that y'all came over as I was getting lonely over here.<BR>

I started in Novemberish of last year--that's how I knew to suggest this place.

I see Bigsky has been doodling again. Been here since October.

JUst came over with the mass exodus, I am confused, but I am trying, BTW bigsky is some doodler eh, I have the last picture he posted as my wallpaper, Nice work,BEARHUNTER

I've been here since the beginning, and Rick has never missed a beat. I plan on warmin' up next to the campfire regularly.

Jorge: So very glad you made it! You don't post much but when you do they are wonderful well thought out posts! You are an asset to our campfire! I have followed you on H.A. as well as shooters. Always grand.<P>Thanks for coming my friend. You have a lot to add here.<P>Tex

I guess I'm mostly what you guys would call a lurker, but I've been around here.

AFP here. <P>Blaine

Flinch here, I stil got my cast iron underwear on from that last place....whewee!

Timber here. Been here a few months. Liked it then. Like it now. I'll be lurking.<P>Tim

Bill here. I will mostly listen and learn if you don't mind. I like the group here a whole bunch, but I don't have the depth of experience that most of you have, and certainly I don't have the way with words that you possess. I have my opinions, but we all know what they are like. One thing I have learned is that it is better for me to be silent and thought a fool, than to open my mouth and remove all doubt.<BR>Respectfully yours, Bill

Bill! I was wondering about you? Hoping you were not a casualty in our campfire move. So glad you found us.<P>Tex

Rick turned me on to this place early on. He's a good guy. You folks should get to know him.<P>Teach

noway here. OG

Alaska Dave here, glad to find some friendly people. Talked to some of you, read most of your posts. I prefer to listen unless I know something about the topic, then I pull the hammer. This sure does feel like a great group. Thanks.<P>------------------<BR>Hunt smart, be safe

Came here from shooters so long ago that no one there remembers me. Been here a while, since before Big Sky. Believe I probably posted the first photo on this board????<BR>Have posted a bunch. Sure glad to see ya'll finally wised up! <BR><P>------------------<BR>-------------------------<BR><I><B>Critr</B></I><BR> <A HREF="http://www.SaguaroSafaris.com" TARGET=_blank>www.SaguaroSafaris.com</A>

LMD- I came over from Shooters to see where everyone had gone. It helps when everyone uses the same user names. How are things going over here. Good shooting. Bob

280: Mostly everyone getting used to the new format. The old problems are starting to get left behind, and we are getting back to normal. Everyone is kinda in shock over the whole deal really. I think today will be our best yet yet.<P>tex

Just got on was mainly a lurker at other site but now I am here. Hardly ever posted because someone always beat me to what I thought.

Been here since October... mostly an observer. I went to Shooters every now and then... didn't like the format. Visited the CoffeeShop too... since they changed it, I don't go there. I prefer this format (Ultimate BB). I've been at HuntAmerica for going on two years, and that is my home base, though I'll be visiting here often.<P>Cheers!<P>Brad

Dave here,<P>Been here since mid December, been quiet, guess that'll change. Used to hear an echo if I posted.<P>Welcome all!<P>Dave

Hello everybody. Never posted before. Decided to step out of the shadows. I really enjoy the knowledge and humor that are in the messages. Unfortunately, I don't have much to contribute. Haven't taken anything bigger than a racoon, but I keep trying. I'll be sure to let you know when I do.

Hell,I could go for a good Coon Huntin' Story,let 'er whirl........

I too have drifted over from the previous embers. Learned a lot from Big Stick (he helped me spend about $1500 last year), Okie John (helped get my .44 mag trigger to my liking), E4E (great firearms cleaning instructions), Big Sky (great artist, had hoped to meet him last fall on my Montana mulie/elk hunt but it wasn't to be. He listens to the Meadow Larks for me). I mostly sit back and enjoy. Glad to have arrived. Mike99

Big Stick. Took my last racoon while squirrel hunting. I've only been hunting for three or four seasons so don't have many "good" stories. You see, I'm just not very good at it. It's like hiking with a gun. Do have some almost got lost, fall in the river, car broke down stories but I'll save them for another time.

Hey Mike99 great to see you made it over here. Hope you can make it out this way again sometime.
