    8000th Order Give away!

    At Arrowhead Equipment & Tenkara Fishing we are closing in on our 8000th order. In just over 4 years we have made and shipped a lot of gear. And I mean a lot, literally thousands of hammocks are hanging with our suspensions, Thousands and thousands of them are kept warm with Kick *** Quilts, hundreds of those are kept dry with Toxoway and Shangri La Tarps. And each year the pace just keeps increasing. This spring we blew through 6000, in August we blasted past 7000 so fast we barely had time to notice. As we start the new year 8000 is on the horizon. All of this made possible by the support of thousands of customers that we have been honored to help get out in the woods.


    We will hit our 8000th order early in 2014 and for us it's a big milestone and we want to celebrate. Our 8000th order will be getting a special gift from Arrowhead Equipment or Tenkara Fishing when their order comes through. That lucky person will get a brand new Jarbidge Underquilt with APEX insulation and a foot pad.... along with a signed copy of The Ultimate Hang by Derek Hansen. Or in the event that the 8000th is a Tenkara Fishing order we will be setting that lucky person up with a Tenkara starter Kit. From rod to flies including a copy of Tenkara Fly Fishing--Insights and Strategies, one of the most recent books on Tenkara with contributions from some of the US's top Tenkara anglers.

    So help spread the word so that we hit this milestone and get 2014 off to an even faster record pace!

    Spread the Word!
    Please Pass the word, Tweet it, Facebook it, link on your site, google+, linked in, you name it....send me a link to your post and I'll include a little something extra for you in with your order.

    Maybe you miscounted <grin>? My Potomac and New River are on order right now (so psyched!) - I think they could be #8000 if you just count again Seriously though - congratulations that is awesome! Rock on!

    Yes, I think you need to recount.

    already! I was Paul's 3000th order not too long ago--I scored a great Flamethrower Quilt. Good on you, Paul. Since I was lucky enough already, I'll postpone any orders so that someone else can have the chance. Congratulations on business.

    Congratulations Paul!

    It just goes to show you reap what you sow. You have always provided great products and outstanding service.

    Here's to another 8000.

    Looking at some of my old receipts....

    order (no number) in 2010
    order 2182 no date
    order 2709 in Aug 2011
    order 3196 in Oct 2011

    Feels like I missed a few. Must be time to order something. Arrowhead makes some good gear and I know Paul has gotten a few sales as the result of the Jarbriges I have loaned out at group hangs for new hangers to try.
    I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !

    Or in Paul's case Sew. Not sure what my order number is for the Flamethrower Socks, but hoping it's 8000

    Thanks for the comments everyone. We have not hit that 8000 just yet but we are getting closer each day. How soon depends on how many orders we get daily but I will say it's close and I expect we will be shipping some lucky customer a Jarbidge yet in January.
