Title: The world is a small place!(and internet too)
Post by: RiverRoost on April 29, 2017, 04:01:33 PM
So not long ago there was a thread started about some guys in Arizona shooting turkeys off the roost on a tv show and told about their "need" to fill their tags. Well last night while sitting at turkey camp at an Oklahoma outfitter and talking about the hunting industry, the peckerheads with hunting shows etc with some other guys in camp that I've never met, one of the guys says that "on a forum on the internet he gets on he posted talking about these guys in Arizona Roos shooting turkeys he saw on tv". I immediately knew the thread he was talking about bc I read the several page posts on the topic and realized he was the one who started the thread initially. What I found so crazy is that two folks, never met before ever could read the same thing on the same forum on the internet and end up being at the same outfitter at the same time and that topic come. Kinda crazy how you bump into folks and make new friends and find common ground.

I too recently met a fellow OG member in OK.  He came to the same outfitter.  When he told me where he was from and mentioned that he loved crappie fishing, I asked if were Gamblin Man on here and indeed he is.

600 miles from home.  It was nice to meet you GM! :icon_thumright:

Hey brother had a great time sharing camp with you. Hope you all didn't get too wet Saturday, the rain and snow followed me all the way back to NM! Hope we get to meet up again sometime!

I once bumped into a fellow on a piece of public ground and he noticed the"Gooserbat" stock sticker on my gun.  He ask if I was the guy on OG .  I said yes and he introduced himself and since we've stayed in loose contact seeing each other at the NWTF convention and through Facebook.
