Butch SearcyDo not send anymore checks. As soon as all the checks clear the bank I will notify all of the drawing date. Also there is a couple extra checks that has been sent in. They will be held until all the checks clear. If a check doesn't clear the next in line will have an opportunity. Those tickets will start at 101. I'm guessing the drawing will take place at the end of next week.

Use Enough GunI have one of Butch's 450-400's and it's a great double rifle.

That would be a very good choice!

And yes, a trip to Boron should be scheduled.

Congratulations.
Have to wait for another try I guess.
