Randy Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I went to the "Great Outdoors Festival" today and met a few RT guys! Steve Foate and Scott Hughes were at the RT booth and I got to have a nice little chat with them. Apparently I was the only "forum member" to show up. :D Thanks for the RT hat guys! Then I went and watched Randy shoot his life savers and even a couple balloons before I got to have a real nice visit with him. I think we talked for around an hour or more. Randy seems like a great guys and a real down to earth good ole country boy. I thoroughly enjoyed talking with him and look forward to a time when we can get to know each other a bit better. Randy, I wish you nothing but the best in your future. Oh sheesh, I almost forgot!! Thanks for all of the gifts, I'll put them all to good use!

randyoitker1 Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Randy, It was great meeting you also. I wish that the wind would have been a little calmer. After you left, I was kind of bummed out about the show you saw but Patrick Flannigan said to me he was having trouble shooting his gun in the wind. He could not do any of his records . He told me if it was easy then it wouldn't be a world record. That made made me feel better! Randy you got to see 2 records: Me miss more than I ever have and my 5 arrow shot! I wish that other members from WI. could have been there.Randy, I wish that you could have saw my last show. The winds really died down and it went great! Thanks for coming Randy, Randy I will be back in WI. on these dates:September 27 The Sportsman's Channel Presents the 2nd Annual Celebration of National Hunting And Fishing Day at the Wern Valley Sportsmen's Club in Waukesha,WI. www.nhfday.org November 8-9 Cabela's store in Richfield, Wisconsin. I hope to see some of you there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Realtree Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Nice meeting up with you Randy. Wish we could have chatted a while longer, but I had to meet with someone that had been trying to set one (a meeting) up with me for three days. I then left soon after for Milwaukee and a flight back down to this hot humid place they call the south. The weather in Oshkosh spoils me every year. My biggest disappointment was not getting down to see and chat with Randy O. His mom even emailed me about the new camo on his truck and that I needed to check it out. Unfortunately, the dealer we had in the tent was short on personnel this year and I never had a chance to get away all weekend long.
