What an outstanding and generous offer. Thank you to everyone in setting this up!

Well done in good spirit. Thanks, Tim

oops didnt realise that i shouldnt have posted in the other topic.

I think the cutoff for the number of posts should be prior to when the details of the hunt prize were posted. As Saeed pointed out lots of posting to bump up your number of posts is not acceptable. Therefore the cutoff should be upto the minute the details were posted, that makes it fair on everyone.

Goodluck to everyone whose in the draw, hope it goes to someone deserving of it.

Saeed is clearly a legend in the making

Saeed, Pierre and Babu - Asante Sana!

If I win this...I´ve never won anything!

Great opportunity!

Thanks, Saeed!

Thanks Saeed!!!!

Thanks Saeed. I hope I win, but if I don't I hope it is someone who has never been to Africa or a guy like Canuck.

Saeed, what an incredible gift! Speaking as someone who has never been able to make it to Africa, I hope I win! Thanks again for such a great site and a level of generosity rarely experienced.

That is a very gracious thing to do....I'm gonna have to stop just reading here in case there's another one in the future......

I would like to say well done to those making this happen.It is truely a unbelievable offer.And good luck to all.

Saeed: Your are amazing...and the opportunities presented on AR are amazing. It will be fun just to watch and see who wins and how it will affect their hunting career.

simply put--THANK YOU for the opportunity--chris

Saeed,

Not only do you provide the best forum I have ever seen but now we have a chance at a free hunt. It just does not get any better.

Hopefully the winner will also get a chance to meet you.

Hello Saeed,

Thank you for this opportunity.

Joe

Saeed, thank you for the generous opportunity.

Joe.

I think this giveaway is very exciting.

While my name is in the barrel and I hope I am lucky (!), if I am not, I hope the person drawn is someone really deserving. Someone maybe who couldn't otherwise even dream of a 16 day Selous safari.

Imagine the excitement.

A truly wonderful deal, just participating in the draw adds excitement to being a member of AR.

Thank you Pierre for donating this hunt!

Thank you Saeed for adding this immense gesture to the long list of all you have done for the AR hunting community. We owe you a lot Sir! You are a Prince indeed!

B.Martins

Saeed and others,
Thank you indeed for this offer, hopefully I get the chance to "play the client" for once

On slightly different note, see that Topi is mentioned as one of the species and yet the hunt is scheduled for the Selous?

Yep, I'd like to win, maybe the only way I ever get to Tanzania....but wouldn't it be cool to see some person drawn, who works 10 hours a day, 6 days a week, with 2 or 3 kids, who has dreamed of Africa for years but with very little hope of ever going to Africa win. Now that would be cool

Thank You Saeed for this wonderful opportunity!!!

GOSH is sure is nice to know someone like Saeed, a gun nut, a shooting nut, a reloading nut, a hunting nut and last but not least an African nut. And then here comes the dream hunt with Pierre' arranged by Ray, or as they call him in Africa "Babu". I have been there with them, and for those of you who have not, it doesn't get any better. Well perhaps Walter could have been included as camp jester. All here should consider themselves previliged to have this opportunity, I certainly do. MANY THANKS TO SAEED, PIERRE' AND RAY, may the HUNTING GODS smile on you hereafter. Good shooting.

Just a clarification, Saeed has purchased this hunt through myself and Pierre, but Pierre or myself are only brokers, Saeed is paying the bills, it is his donation, not ours...

Our job now is to perform to his and the winners expectations..

Thanks Saeed. Now let's see, who do I want to go with me!!!!!


Dulcinea

Wow, now that is generous. Thank you Saeed.

Saeed,

Perhaps this is a good oppurtunity to thank you not only for the buff hunt give away but also for providing this excellent fourm. It has been a great resource but even more an oppurtunity for fellowship.

Again a heart felt Thank You.

Registered in Feb, but 0 post due to reticent nature. I've been lurking for a while, and I'm learning a lot. Oh well, maybe one day I'll get the chance to visit some place which is only a dream for me.

Good luck to whoever gets to go. Far as I'm concerned this will be way better than winning the lottery.

Thank you for the opportunity !!

Thank you.

Okay, I'm in. Only about 3000 posts but they were so insightful, helpful, witty, timeless, and generally valuable, it's more like 3,000,000.

Saeed:

Thanks so much for Accurate Reloading! You have given us all here so much already! Some lucky person will have a fantasic adventure. You are a truely generous man!

Best regards,

Jim

My thanks to everyone who has made this raffle a reality. My special thanks to Saeed for making this resource available to all of us. I do not believe that there is a web site that contains so much valuable information as this one does, and yet offers it for free. We benefit greatly from your generosity.

TerryR

Saeed,

Thanks so much this site is tops.... I hear there is also a drawing going on.

Mike

Saeed's a classy guy, period.

Saeed, Pierre & Ray have all been very generous indeed with this kind offer......but I find it disappointing that less than one person in every three has had the good manners to post a thank you on this thread......I appreciate that some have said thank you on the other thread but surely not two out of every three.

I will say that it is a great gesture. I only wish I had 100 posts.

I was saving that for my big acceptance speech!

Hat's off to Saeed for this most magnanimous gesture.

Wow! I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Two trips in two years I might have a heart attack!

A very generous deed indeed, and yes, a thank you to Saaed is in order; so my sincerest thanks to Saaed and best wishes.
