Chris Winstead!

Ordered a vest from Chris a few weeks ago knowing that I wasnt giving him much time to make a vest by the date I requested being May 1st for a silhouette match I was going to be attending. Any way I decided to request the date anyway and see if it could be made in time. Would have understood if he wasnt able to but to, but to my suprise I received the vest this morning on my front porch via Fedex. I would highly recomend Chris to anyone in the market for a vest. Im extremely pleased with the craftmanship along with his recomendations of colors. Thanks again Chris!
P.S. I'll post pictures as soon as I can
Baby Huey!
P.S.S. Does anybody know if there is a baby huey patch available for purchase somewhere?

Baby Huey you can probably get Paul Freeman's wife (stsbuyer) to do a Baby Huey sticker for your rifle in time for SOuthern Nationals.

A sticker would be cool, but how about a patch like this on my vest

I like this one even more,

but for that price I dont know if I like it that much. I just like the fact that it says Baby Huey opposed to the other one.

You just spent how much on that new vest ?? and your balking at buying the once in a life time perfect patch for a measly 29 bucks ? Just buy it you cheap skate !!
Better yet, Mary of Innocent gave you that name, let her buy it for you.

All Right you two Bobs....The Baby Huey name was given by none other than hambone, tbone, neckbone and any other kind of bone you can find. Not me.
Although I must agree with McAlice, spend the $29 and get the patch, or if you had had the patience to wait , Chris could have had it done before he put the vest together, like he did on
Jack Rabbit Kid's vest. But no you have to have it before May 1st, only so you think you can beat Hammy for the gold medal. Sorry I'm not going to be there, I want to see Malinios kick both your a$$es.
Instead I will be in PeEll enjoying the cool weather and a weekend of having my butt kicked by my son.
Now for those in Florida, shooting the Florida Sunshine Games at Hollywood Rifle and Pistol is a must. Hammy (Kevin) cooks a great meal as well.

Now that's a spanking, Mary!
Baby Huey, it's too late for cheap - you're hooked - so get the patch and and enjoy your addiction.

Thanks Mary for the kind plug for our match, as I am not one known to self promote. Although I frown on flashiness in any fashion, I do agree Huey's vest needs some type of company for that lonely five in a row pig pin presently occupying that massive waste of cowhide. PS, I doubt anyone at our match will be wearing long pants....

LOL he is like a coin collector with one coin in his collection eh?

And no doubt two heads of cattle had to be sacrificed to make the one vest. Don't feel bad CZ I made it into AAA in 5 rifles and only managed to get a few pins before they started with the AAA-Master only get 10 in-a-row pins now. Could at least make sure I got one 5`er for each animal before moving up otherwise your screwed and that just leaves glaring gaps in your pin assortment. Of course I have shot PLENTY 5 in rows of everything since then! Odd how you can make it to AAA and not get but a couple pins getting there but then you could make master in hunter and never get a 5 in a row
Edit: I just remembered I am owed several 5 and 10 air rifle pins from a member who shall remain nameless, but I am holding out hope that Jeaux will get some eventually

lol

And it's a 5 in a row ram pin!

Id love and try to milk the system but heres what the seller just sent me.
Hello and thanks for your offer. The consignor is willing to discount the price 20% (-$6), and says that price is a steal as he has been acquiring these patches for over forty years and it's the only one you'll ever see! Thanks, GRAPHXFAN
Seller: graphxfan
His counter offer was 23.99, Im gonna push for $20.49
And I do believe this will be the only one I'll ever see as Ive scoured the internet for this same patch and came up with nothing.
