I accepted a new position with my company, and will be moving. Due to the transfer, I can't commit to the traveler at this time.

Please remove me from the list.

That's a bummer and awesome at the same time. I hope it comes with more $$$.

Thanks. After several months of negotiations, they were able to make the move worth it.

Ok gents. All thats left is throwing some paint on the bottom, a pad weight and line attach point. Im going to leave it up to y'all to put what ever length you need for your hunt on the deke. I've gotten Steeles address and hope to have it shipped out by the end of the week. There will also be a journal in the box like last year.
Now Im busting it to try and get the ones in the second pic carved into some Blue Wings. No pressure

Rick you're amazing thank you so much! I predict a lot of money will go to charity this year.

Ok it's started. The decoy is on its way to Tennessee. I had to use UPS and in case anyone is interested it is going ground to be delivered by Thursday and with and additional 2.00 its insured for 200.00 for a total shipping cost of 19.11. Thats shipped from southeast Oklahoma.
One more tidbit. I threw in a couple extra strips of leather in case the one thats on it now breaks somehow. I havent used leather for an attach point before and not sure how it will hold up. Probably should have treated it but doh! If there's a problem and it needs to be changed give me a call, my numbers in the journal.

How much would I say it weighs and what size box I have to ship from La to Ny trying to get a quote and time because I may be able to keep it a little longer no one has the weekend after me so I have 2 weeks to get it shipped

I got a notification that you sent me one then when I went to go read it, it was gone. Usually means the sender deleted it before you can read it. Go look at your sent items, it's not in my inbox.

Weird, I even went and looked at the actual database and it's not there. Send it again.

Eric Haynes, made a good suggestion and wanted to see the traveler get a more organized sub forum so the members that hunt over it can post their hunt logs. I have made another sub-forum located within the "events" forum that will allow members who hunt over the decoy to start a thread detailing their hunt. I will also move past traveler's in there as well.

I didnt measure IR weigh the box, but best guess would be 14" square, under 6 lbs
