Contest is closed! Tons of clever, funny, and fun answers!!! There were too many to comment on all of them, but I'll mention a few that I really got a kick out of:

Cooter: Chapter 7- Coots, it's a Maxxis, not a Carbon Matrix!

DonBo: Kira- I like your way of thinking...

InTheNorthwoods: Betty- Short, sweet, nice.

96Trigger: Artemis- Very clever- I like it.

sticknstring: Raven- Short, sweet, fitting.

bobbymalone: Manute Bow- Funny, I like it!

Vister: Vister XXX- um.... no.

Rockin' Rod: Son of Barber- Inside joke and very funny!

The committee deliberated on the matter and struggled between two two choices: Raven and Betty (apparently they like short and sweet). There were several members voting strongly for one and several others were just as adimate on the other. After much debate, a winner was finally selected!

...and the winner is: Betty!

Congrats InTheNorthwoods! Would you like a Hoochie Mama with a call holder or would you prefer a whitetail grunt call?

Please post your e-mail address so I can e-mail you and get your mailing address to send you your prize. Or, feel free to call me and we'll get it figured out (701-799-5344).

[DonBo]

Betty? Whatever...it's your bow. J/K Betty is a fine name.

Congrats ITN!

[sticknstring]

No consolation prize???

I'm guessing your wife was on the selection committee so when you tell your her you're headed out after work with Betty, she won't have her bags packed when you get home.

[SmilinBob]

Didn't see Betty coming, but I bet there will be some mileage out of "Betty gets one today, nah, Betty doesn't"

[bobbymalone]

thanks for the honorable mention

As soon as I read "Betty" I thought winner. Good choice!

OOO-OOOOH BLACK BETTY BAM-BA-LAM!

[vister]

I'm not tryin to steal anybodys glory, but vister xxx was musky bucks idea. And a clever one at that!

Also, is Betty in reference "my only hope was Betty Lou, she was the one, a combination ak-57 Uzi radar laser triple barreled double scoped heat seeking shotgun"

[InTheNorthwoods]

Scoot - Thank you for the honor. Feel free to shoot me an email.

[96trigger]

Thanks for the honorable mention. Can't go wrong with Black Betty, classic. Hope you are happy with her.

[Wanderer]

Congrats ITNW.

Guess you just didn't "get" my name.

Or maybe it just wasn't that good!

[Scoot]

Congrats ITNW.

"The Canyon Coronary" was a fine entry, but sadly the committee didn't deem it worthy of the "final cut". You know how the committees can be- tough to know what they heck they are going to think or do...

[Wanderer]

I was just thinking of the kind of country you like to hunt and throwing in a heart attack on top of it.

Betty - named after the song is fitting.

Good luck with her this year Scoot!

[Scoot]

Yep, it does make sense. If you factor in my family's history of cardiac problems, it'd really be fitting... a little too fitting! I'd hate to tempt fate with a name like that!

FYI- InTheNorthwoods requested that I take the grunt tube and give it to a youngster who is interested in archery. I know just the young kid- he's 13 and I see him shooting quite often. I don't think he has anything like a grunt call, so I'll happily give it to him. I'm sure he'll be very appreciative! Very classy move InTheNorthwoods!!!

Thanks all for playing- it was fun! Hopefully Betty can get a good Bam Ba Lam in on a big buck this coming Fall!

[engfish]

I'm getting my next contest name in early--"Willie Shoot." Right after "Betty's Done."

Congrats!

[96trigger]

Classy move Northwoods, I don't think I would of thought of that. Probably should have, work with kids everyday. Most of us have all that stuff, a kid will get twice the enjoyment out of it. Congrats again.

[Wanderer]

Ohhh, I didn't know that....

I meant the Mulies anyway.

Take care!

[Scoot]

I hear ya, Wanderer- I was just making a joke!
