I gotta say, it was a really tough choice on voting for this one.... had to read thru the thread three times to decide.....

Hat's off to all that competed in it!

Nice shelters. Learned alot just by reading through everybodys post. I have to applaud the guys that actually dedicated the time to sleep in the homemade shelter as well as prove that it held in heat through the night. Wish the best of luck to everyone

Had a difficult time picking. Very nice job everyone.

In this thread you start out by saying you are not lobbying for votes then a few posts down you say that you would really appreciate votes since it's getting close to being over with. What gives, bro. That's not the way we operate here on our forums.

not cool in my book,some of the wss folks venture over here ...you seem to be directing them here for a vote ?

+1

I think everyone that made a usable shelter and took the trouble to take pics and post them did very well and gave us an interesting read. Well done all!

 

[R.A.T.]

I'll be honest with you, not to take away from anyone else's but I voted for Ben's. Now with that said, we have decided that the top 3 winners all get the same prize - a RAT Pack w/ knife. All of the top 3 are just that good, IMO.

Ben and his buddy built a great shelter, I’ve got to give him that. Nice job, Ben. You must have done alright if you got Jeff’s vote. It’s not my contest so I won’t comment on the rest of it.

If I’m in the top 3 when this thing closes, it will be one heck of a Christmas. Thanks for your generosity, Jeff. We’ve got a good crew of people here. I’ve learned a lot and plan on sticking around to learn some more. One thing I thought would be cool was if you guys could critique our shelters if anything stuck out that you would have done differently.

 

[texastonydobbs]

I have a Critique but it is just me a personal preferrence really
I would not be laying beside another guy in a small shelter & smiling but that is just me no one have a GF or Wife to pose along... geez talk about Brownie points...... that is how you sway votes guys :thumbup:

 

[fishkev236]

Haha.. I would have to agree! but then again.. what girl would spend the night in the woods in the cold, with the only thing protecting them is some rotten wood and pine bows...not any girl i know haha

Good shelters, folks. But Andaman's just "spoke to me."
