Chef

It's amazing not only the quantity of sheds that Jim owns, but matching sets, and sheds of the same buck from different years...

Now for the GOOD STUFF! . . . This GAGGER set was brought by CRB... . . . These are just some pics of Jim's home and all he has laying and hanging around...

This is when the weather turned in our favor...we started getting RAIN! . . . Ernesto enjoying the cool shower... . . . The breeze was greeted by the flag, I thought it made a great pic... . . . Jim's front port has a beam running it's entire length. Jim has sheds along ALL OF IT! (not just dinks either!) . . . Resident dove with little ones in her nest living in shed heaven...

Here are the pictures! I want to echo what everyone else has said. From the hospitality that Jim and Susan showed, to the great BBQ, it was a memorable day/evening. It should be law that EVERYONE that's a member of this forum, see Jim's collection at least once in their lives! It's impressive to say the least. The weather was HOT to begin with, but we were graced with a mild shower and a lightning show. That in itself brought a nice cool breeze that dropped the temp down considerably. I would say there were probably somewhere between 40-45 attendees that showed up somewhere along the night. Thanks again Jim! I already can't wait for next year! ...now for the pics... . . . . Here is the entry gate to the house. Jim welded it himself. . . Here are some pictures of just some of the food that was enjoyed by all... . . Many of the people that at one time or another showed up...it was great meeting you all.

Still here! I'm sleepin in the antler room!

Was a great time! Was awesome to see that the event grew from last years. The BBQ was delicious, the alcohol was FREE, the auction raffles for tags were FUN, and the kids were the absolute best. There was good representation from the CW.com forum and it was awesome to hear that CW.com stepped up to the plate and gave about 80% of the money raised for Sadie's raffle!! I enjoyed when the AZBGSR winners were called. Their expressions and excitement heard over the loudspeakers was cool. I know there will be some pictures posted soon. I hope everyone marks their calendars for next years event.

Give us the story! Happy birthday man. I'll catch up with you next run.

I cant wait just to see how cash TJ will drop at this banquet! After all, he missed the AES and ADA banquets. Wasn't there some sort of New Years resolution going on?!

Hope you are having a great one bud. Knowing you, you probably celebrated early.

Way to represent CW.com! Looking forward to a fun filled evening.

I'll be bringing some roasted bliss potatoes. So no one else brings potatoes! LOL

I just pre-ordered mine. Doug's website is taking pre-orders for august delivery. I called them to place the order and the true delivery date is unavailable. Either way, I'll be rockin this puppy this season!

I plan to attend as well. I look forward to seeing a ton of CW.comers there!

Amanda, Orlin is a tentative attendee. He will know more as the date approaches.

Sure looks like you found a gold mine with some serious potential!

That's a beautiful cat. Great picture.

BTW, I vote for "Jacqueline" She was one of P.O. Ackley's daughters.

This is right around the corner isn't it! This is a great cause and definitely a "feel good" night for all involved. The food is great and the kids are awesome. Hopefully we get more people on board to support OE4A and have another fun evening!

Great guys with phenomenal service & pricing. They support this site and the hunting community pretty well too.

Nice lookin rig Christian. That stock has some sweet lines. If she's shooting that good already, that's going to be a long range killing machine. BTW, still waiting on the email. Send me some loads too.

Forgot the anniversary...that will teach her. No in all seriousness,, it was nice knowing you TJ!

Stupendous write up! I read through the entire story not missing a beat. You did great with all the pictures and again, CONGRATS! It will be nice to see your fish flying through the air! Hopefully you will post those pics up soon. Like I said...living' the dream!

That is absolutely awesome Jim! Congrats, looks like you are living the life! Can't wait to hear the story and see more pics.

You guys have been doing pretty good! Thanks for sharing! Dad looks happy!

Any fish is better than NO fish right?!
