2016 Contingency Program Discussion

Register to hide this ad
Let's all remember the only way this stuff happens is because of sponsors. Don't forget to thank them and buy from them. There is always a remark box when. ordering. it only takes a few seconds to say thanks from Boomer Shooter. Unless you are Burk and typing that takes 5 minutes. Honestly though thanks also to the Burk, Brandon, Jessie and the rest of the moderators. Let's make 2016 even bigger. If you know a sponsor have them get in touch with Burk.
 
Good luck with that Yellow Shooter, I started with the 2015 Jersey on Feb 17th and shot nearly 3-4 times a week at every match within 70 miles of me.
They haven't even awarded the prizes from 2015 and no word on the 2016 sponsors or Jersey design. If they came out with it today, the soonest you would have a Jersey is about 1st week of March.
I have it from good authority that there may not be a Jersey program this year. I also heard the reason for the delay on the awards was that not all of the sponsors sent in their promised booty.
I just saw from Wall today that the Hailey Ordinance gear just came in. A few days ago, Burk said he was waiting on his Web programmer, so not sure which is true.

Is it possible that both of those reasons could be true?

Also, sorry that you are so dissapointed with the way the program is being run. I would like to thank you for participating

unless you heard it from either me or Burk, it's not "from good authority".
As far as the Hailey Ordnance stuff, it didn't just come in, I just had a chance to go pick it up.
I'm not exactly sure why I'm explaining any of this, but we have Jobs just like most of you.
Those jobs aren't this, This is something we do because (so far) we've liked it.
 
For what it's worth, there are some of us that did not get to participate in the past that are patiently waiting to participate this year and appreciate the efforts put forth into such a program. Hopefully you don't give up on the idea. Thank you.

Sorry, I meant no discouragement on the program or any of the volunteers runningit. I had a great year shooting on the program. For sure it motivated me to shoot more often than I would have without it? I know you all have full time work, as I have read your profile and surveyors blog. I'm just anxious for the prize draw and the new jersey season. I wouldn't say I am disappointed in the program, but the lack of any updates is a little worrisome.

I apologize and meant no disrespect. My good authority was Jessie, but if that is not good authority, then my bad. I'm happy you took the time to explain it, as it gives the participants some idea of what's going. I think we all just want to know what's going on. If it takes another month, that's fine, just let us know. if you need some help, just let us know.
 
Jesse is a good source of information about boomer shooter but is not heavily involved with the contingency program. He may or may not be up to date on all information at a given time. If you want accurate answers, the best source is Burk followed by myself.
 
UPDATE....UPDATE....UPDATE

Ok, the programmer says he's about done with our prize selection app. so we should be able to wrap up the 2015 contingency program pretty soon & then we can focus on the 2016 program.

We've had a few new sponsors contact us wanting to participate, as well as some of our existing sponsors. We've also started reaching out to other companies (new & existing) to ask if they'd like to participate as well. If you know of a company that you think would be a good fit, have them contact Burk.

We've already begun the talks with the shirt vendor & are working on pricing & options. Once we have our sponsors laid out we can finalize the design & get the details & order info from the vendor.

Nothing is final yet but we are working on it & haven't given up on the program (in spite of how big of a pain in the ass some of you guys can be :D )
