Sponsor Promotional Giveaway - Clip-Shot!

Postby WapitiTalk1 » 03 27, 2017 •  [Post 1]

All right Wapiti Talk members, I've got a really good sponsor promotional giveaway item for you this week! Lyn from Clip-Shot has graciously offered up one of his awesome little portable tri-pod substitutes, AKA The Clip-Shot, complete with Smart Phone Adaptor to one lucky winner. How do you win this? By answering a simple 8-) question of course. What's the question? I'm so glad you asked. In 1973, I traveled by team bus to the town Lyn and his Clip-Shot business resides in to play a mean game of junior high basket ball (if I remember correctly, I scored 6-8 points and had a few assists ;)...) . All you have to do is guess the town I traveled from to Lyn's home town way back in 1973. That's all you get. One guess per person to start with. Well, let's hear your guesses and good luck! RJ

You guys are doing your map work. I've lived in Missoula, Libby, Troy, Kalispell, and had a girlfriend from Heron. Again, good shooting but no direct hit yet ;).

I am not going to be eligible for this prize, but I think I may know the answer to this one! I won't say it though. We will see if I am right....

On the topic of Clip-Shots, man do those things work well! I used it to take a picture of the wife and I at home in our Flintstones costumes for a Halloween Party last fall because all the kids were asleep. When (not if) you get one, you will find all kinds of uses for it!

OK, here's a hint; only one school in the town I lived in in 1973 (housed all town students, grades 1-8). That's the gym in the background; Noxon was a big school compared to mine. Here's a picture :D ...

Keep the guesses coming!

I will try Plains. I have never been there, but it sounds like it could fit.

Thank you to both RJ and Clip Shot for the give away. I have wanted to try one of these for a year. There are several guys in camp I'm sure will "need" one after seeing this in person.

Went to school there also, really nice little sleepy town by the Clarkfork River. After graduating 8th grade from Paradise, we went to highschool in Plains.

The Paradise school closed its doors in 2013 I believe due to lack of students from the little town. Paradise was a prosperous little town in the 70s/early 80s as a RR town but then kind of faded away after that. Beautiful little place in the Clarkfork valley though if you ever get a chance to drive through there.

Stringunner, congrats on the "win"; nicely done. PM me your mailing info and I'll get your Clip-Shot on the way. RJ

RJ: Stringunner gets his mail from my mailbox. Would you like to address it to "Stringunner" and just go with my address? I will take good care of his winnings. :lol:

No problem Swede, I'll get it sent to you in the morning :). I'm sure you'll get the clip shot to stringunner by the end of the calendar year. :)

Thanks RJ. The post Office has never worked this fast before. What did you do? Sent it by special courier? Anyway I guess I will need a camera or smart phone to get any good out of it, or like I said earlier; I can wait here for Stringunner to come by to pick it up. What ever works :evil:
