Members Casey Jordan Posted April 4, 2010 Author Members Report Posted April 4, 2010 For the engravers. The question was asked: What can be entered into the engraving category? You can enter anything except bits & spurs since we already have categories for those. So it is up to you what you want to put in. If your a gun engraver you could even just put in a floor plate or frame parts and not the whole gun. Just something that will show case your engraving. Any comments and questions welcome!

Members Casey Jordan Posted April 11, 2010 Author Members Report Posted April 11, 2010 A couple people have asked if they need to be present to enter. No, you don't have to be there to enter or win. Your entry can be brought by a friend of yours or can be mailed to me to take for you. Any questions just ask!

Members Casey Jordan Posted April 23, 2010 Author Members Report Posted April 23, 2010 One week left to entry deadline of April 30th. Just a quick point. Some makers have said they would not enter because they could not win. My answer is win, lose or draw you are going to come out ahead. Consider this: For a $100.00 entry fee you get exposure to 4 or 5 hundred people at the contest and then several thousand more at the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame during the two month exibit. You will have your website, contact information and pictures of your work on our website. You also get the chance to win cash and prizes. I have entered the engraving contest knowing I won't win because my engraving is not good enough to win. I'm not trying to be modest, it's just a fact. I entered for the cheap exposure of my work. Where else can you get this much exposure for $100.00? Something to think about! I have seen a lot of great work on this site. You might be suprised with the enterest you get by having others to see your work too. Any questions just ask! Comments and suggestions welcome!

Members Casey Jordan Posted April 29, 2010 Author Members Report Posted April 29, 2010 To all makers that wait 'till the last minute to enter: This is very Important!! If your application is in the mail by Friday, April 30th we will accept your entry. Please let me know it is on the way. But we will need you to email your biography and description by Friday, April 30th. We are having posters made for the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame with the makers bio's on them. Any descriptions and bio's received after April 30th will not be included on the posters. SORRY! This has to go to the printer by May 3rd. We will need a couple days to do the layout and design. As always please ask any questions here or call me: 602-482-9758 Thanks, Casey Casey Jordan www.caseyjordansaddle.com www.artofthecowboymakers.com Q: Do you have A.D.D.? A: Look, there's a chicken
