While I agree that some of this stuff would be nice to have, one thing that needs to be remembered is the fact that OG and OH have to front the money for this stuff.  Maybe we should be content with what is offered.  Just a thought.
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

You are so right Bob.  One thing everyone doesn't think about is the fact that they have to pay for these items up front out of their own pockets and if they don't sell these items then they get stuck with the losses.  Its one thing for people to say they want certain items but when the time comes around to pay for them then these people have the tendency to disappear.

Annie and Shannon are trying to provide the OG members with something they can call their own right now with Patches and Decals.  They order a limited supply of these items so that they will sell out and that they don't get stuck with a loss out of "their" pockets.  So I can only see one way for anything beyond decals and stickers ever becoming a reality is if there is an interest in say for example an OG mouse pad.  Then I think that if the members are interested in an OG mouse pad that they need to order them up front and "pay" for them up front so that Annie and Shannon know exactly how many they need to order this way they don't get stuck with a bunch of OG mouse pads sitting around their house. 

Shirts I don't see happening people.... It would be very difficult and a ton of work for them to order different sizes and different colors and then get paid for them up front.  Come on now.... running this site is allot of work as it is now and to ask them to do something like would be putting even more strain and stress on their brain cells and family life.

All of these ideas are great and I love em but some how, some way someone is going to have to come up with a plan or an idea that would not create an extra amount of work and stress on Annie and Shannon and also with no worry of any monetary loss on their part.  Whatever plan or idea you come up with has to be thought out thoroughly where everything is paid for UP FRONT.  If someone comes up with an idea or a plan PLEASE RUN BY ANNIE AND SHANNON FIRST.  They are the owners of the site and have final say in anything that involves the OG site.  Remember..... Get their approval first on all ideas and plans.

I hope you all understand and can appreciate everything that they already do for us now with providing us a "free, no drama, no hassle, family friendly" site to hang out and call your second home with world renowned call makers, turkey hunters, BINGO games and just good ol' everyday folk that enjoy life's pleasures the same as you do.

Thank You

If pre orders are taken it wouldnt cost OG OH any out of pocket expense. There is work involved of course. Perhaps we could assemble a Merchandise committee that would be willing to do the leg work and give Annie and Shannon a break.

Now your starting to think in the right direction....

But remember.... Every idea and plan has to be ran by Annie and Shannon.

Good Thinking Redarrow  :icon_thumright:

I have no problem getting prices for you guys on MOST of these items...but we will not be able to do EVERYTHING as my distributor may carry mouse pads, but not mugs, may carry this but not that... and well --- things may need to come from different companies.. I will get info and post up for you all ---

T shirts are TRICKY in the fact that the camo my main distributor carries is NOT the camo you all would want... so solid black shirts may be the way to go...and IF I found a good camo --- so many of you want different kinds... obession, break up,etc... -- we would only be able to offer what is available...limiting it for everyone...

just bare with me.. let me see a FEW THINGS I can get together for you ---

and YES it would have to be PRE ORDERED ---cause , no offense... I dont want to get stuck with 12 COFFEE MUGS with OG on it! LOL

I have ABSOLUTELY no problem pre-paying for anything. If there is enough interest to generate an order of coffee mugs, count me in. If not, that's fine too.
