Tribute

[Hoot]

Hey guys, My name is Tom Zuck, and I am currently in Iraq. As my tour winds down and I am getting ready to go home and do some hunting, I have found myself thinking of past hunts, and other things the Avery Pro-Staff has done for me.

Chris Jones, in Colorado, whom I consider to be a very good friend, has shared many memorable hunts with me. Here's to you Chris, and to many more good times in the pit! Cant wait to get after 'em when I get home!

Jeff Lewis, and everyone else, that organized the DVD drive for deployed soldiers, Thank you for your kind thoughts, the box of hunting videos was the best thing I ever recieved while in Iraq. More often than not my mind was on hunting anyway, but you guys really helped to keep my mind off the hard times, and made the good times better.

Im sure there are many more hunters out there just like me that have been helped a great deal by each member of the Pro-Staff. So heres a big thank you to the entire Avery Team!!

Thanks
Tom

Man Tom there is no need to thank me a bit. I am very fortunate to have met and hunted with some of the greatest guys in the world. You I would consider on the top of that list. Thanks for what you are doing and make it another month then get home! You have an open invitation to take a seat in my pit anyday!

[Derrick Goodwin]

Hoot- My hats off to you. Thank you for all you do, God Bless and come home safe.

Hoot,

Like the others have said...thanks for the kind words. I am glad that we could in our own small way show you (and your fellow servicemen and women) our support and appreciation of your service.

Hoot,

It is a small gesture by alot of people and I'm glad you liked it. I was proud to be a part of this DVD drive put on by Jeff!! I figured it was the least I could do for a fellow service member serving his country overseas. Getting care packages is the best feeling in the world and getting those dvd's must of been the topper!!

Take care and get home safe!
