Seems Remington wants help choosing spokespeople.

Well I guess once you take the survey the link no longer works---

Sorry .

Anyway they wanted ratings on Michael Waddell, Hal Blood, Hailey Heath, Brett Favre, Kevin Harvick, etc as spoksesperson

and whether it would help or harm my recommending or using Remington products--etc.

Maybe they figure that if M. Jordan can sell underwear then perhaps Favre can sell rifles??? Roll Eyes

I told 'em that celebs. didn't mean much to me, but quality products did. I suggested that they save their money and keep prices the same or even lower them.

BTW, the only names I recognizied were Michael Waddell and Brett Farve. Neither of whom endorsement would cause me to go buy anything.

My coments were in the same context. Celebrity endorsements will not, generally, alter the judgement of people who hunt and shoot. We look at such things differently. We will come to know for ourselves, whether things work or not.

I pretty much told them the same. Save the money from endorsements and put it into a better product and they won't need celebrity endorsements.

Yes, I took it. I'm in the same boat as you all. Brett means nothing to me. Waddell means less. Haley---get real. Anyone can
hunt high fence.

Make a good product like the 700, price it right & forget the celebs. CB
