Hey guys-
Just checking interest in anybody wanting to invest in some Gods of Thunder items for the team.
Hats, T-shirts, or gun barrel decals...anybody want to do this ?
I don't personally know anyone that does hats or shirts, but we can get decals made by people here on OG, but I have no leads on the other items.
I know since we moved up to 14 people, the idea of a travel call became kinda' logistically hard to do before everybodys season ran out, but what about these items ? Does anyone have interest in commemorating our team season together ?
What say ye ?
Ideas/suggestions, lets hear 'em........
I know we did hats last year but don't remember who we did them for us. Whoever it was is a member of Old Gobbler.
This is the exact hat that we got last year. We had Gods Of Thunder put in the front and our name and oldgobbler put on the back.

Works for me. :gobble:
I like it....I would be in for 2 of them.
I like the barrel decal idea too.
Like the hat idea and the decal idea also
I am in for two, but could we change the color from last year? I have a couple already in that color? Maybe put the 2011 OG patch on it?
Tell me more about the hats from last year.....
I saw the links ya'll put up, but have questions.
Who (on the team) ordered the hats last year ? Did you just tell them what you wanted on the hat and they did as they pleased, or did you have more control of exactly how ya'll wanted them.
If we want OG patches on there we'd have to move fast and do we know if this same hat maker would put them on for us ?
Barrel Decals: If you guys will decide on a color, i'll have them made for us and send them out when I get them....my treat for you guys !
I currently have Kicks chokes decals on my 835. They are about 5/8" tall and about 8" long and are printed in a matte gold color. Looks good on a camo gun, but if you guys have other color suggestions, let's hear 'em. But lets try and come to an agreement on one color to make it easier on the maker.
BowBendr:
No color preference on the decal....I sure appreciate the offer. :thanks:
The Old Gobbler patch on the front of a hat would be cool.
Not sure who did the hats last year but they were ordered and done threw someone on the site. Since everything crashed I have know way of finding who it was. I think Spurs handled everything for our team with it so he may know.
Ill post a pic of last years hat.
This is what we did last year.

I like the hat. We had better get moving on this if we want to have them for hunting..
Ive got a guy that I work with who also owns a sporting goods store here in town that can do anything that we want for the hats and if thats what we want to do then i'll talk to him and see what he can do for us. Just let me know asap which direction were going to go with color, style, and what we want to put on it. :you_rock:
I say hats.
But no bright colors, or shiny looking threads. I really hate getting hats that have shiny logos.
I like a grass pattern best.
If he can put on part of the banner even better.
Really like the slogan on the banner to.
If someone knows a local guy that does good work I say keep it local to the members here.
Talked with the guy at work and he said he would love to do some hats for us. Depending on what we do he estimated it would be $12 to $14 for the finished hat.
He said he could do the OG logo straight onto the hat as long as OG gave him permission to use the logo or he can design anything we want to go on it. We just have to steer him in the direction that we want to go.
Ive created a logo but can't figure out how to get in uploaded to show it and see what yall think. If anyone can send me their e-mail ill send it to them. I want be around a computer much this weekend so it may be awhile before I respond.
Creek not a fan of the distressed hats you linked to.
But really it does not matter the style to me.
Send me the logo. vanheldengamecalls@gmail.com I can get them on here. I think!!
The OG logo? Is that the skeleton with the turkey? I love that. Would be cool on the back.
Let me know who to send $ to. Paypal??
Creek, sounds good to me. I make any hat look bad!

Sounds like this may be the best option.
Don't see us getting much of a better deal for someone that says they'll do what we want.
Well, looks as if I have lost the logo but its on my work computer and will be able to get it back Monday. I thought I sent it to my personal email but it doesn't seem to be there. Tried making it again on my lap top but don't have the same program as I do at work and can't figure it out.
As far as the OG logo goes, yes I was thinking about the skeleton with the bird over its shoulder but OG would have to give us permission to use that logo. I was thinking about putting it on the front of the hat and put Gods Of Thunder on the back. The OG logo will probably be to big for the back of a hat.
The Logo that I made at work was a turkey track with The Gods of Thunder over it in an arch with either oldgobbler.com under the track or The Calm Before The Storm under the track.
Mad, you've got an e-mail. :icon_thumright:
Hey Derek, can you shoot that image to me also at scottcoffey2000@yahoo.com ?
Thanks bud.
Sure will.
Here is the logo.
(http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z233/madarchery/GodsOfThunder.jpg)
Toss the second grey shadow.
Maybe add a shotgun barrel. Like its pointed at you or at a 45degreee toward ya. Maybe try to bring the thunder into the logo?
Otherwise I am good with this.
Yeah, the shadow needs to go. I never meant for it to be there but didn't have time to take it out. Had you rather have Old Gobbler under the turkey track?
Im no design pro so if anyone else has any ideas or wants to do one then by all means give it a shot.
Found this on the net.

We could replace the guitars with guns, the skull with a turkey skull or turkey track, and have The Gods Of Thunder added in.
Now if we do lightning and multiple things then we will probably have to go with multiple colors to make it all look right so do we want colors on the hats?
And one thing to remember, if were doing camo hats then we probably want to keep things some what simple. To much and it may not show up good on the hat.
(http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z233/madarchery/logo.jpg)
But curve the type. Could not figure it out.
Sounds good. :icon_thumright:
Works for me.
I play at work with PS, ID, ILL but I am not sure where we want to go with this. I am having a mental block right now. And here at home all I have are gimp and inkscape to play with. And its just not the same :(

You just made me realize how truly uneducated I am when it comes to computers.
:TrainWreck1:
Can't see it. If you want save as a pdf and email it to me. vanheldengamecalls@gmail.com I can drop it in Gimp and change it to a jpg and post it here.
Not sure but when you save as see if word allows you to save a s a jpg. I doubt it though.
Anything you all come up with is cool with me, I really don't care much, but I sure like raggin' Creekrocket.........whatever we do I need two hats.....
Here is the latest version
(http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z233/madarchery/logo-1.jpg)
If you guys give me a week. I can work something up at work on down time. If you guys just give me an idea what your would like to see.
I was thinking a solid patch like logo like the latest oval creek did up. I like his type font. I personally want to add some thunder somehow. Not sure how yet.
Do we want a turkey or tracks? Do we want a gun? do we want a lightning bolt?
Do we want permission to use old gobblers logo and just add the Gods of thunder over it. I would think this would tie it all together nicely. OG, the turkey, a cool logo, and a godly team name.
I will contact OG and find out the logistics of it.
But any ideas let me know. Also I need who ever is going to arrange the hats to find out what file format they would like it in.
Email to OG sent.
I see they have a new 2011 logo. The turkey skull. The old was the skeleton carring the bird.
O vote the skeleton as its a darker image. Not sure I want a hunting hat with a big white bird head on it.
Thinking the OG round skeleton patch with Gods of thunder over the top. I think its the simplest.

Yeah, something along those lines with some lightning streaks would be the bomb.......... :icon_thumright:

I think were dead on now. If OG gives us the ok, I can give a pic of it to they guy doing the hats and tell him what we want to go with it and see what he comes up with as well.
I really like the OG patch.
Sorry that I haven't had a lot of input on the hats....I love all the ideas though and can't wait to wear one proudly.
Throw one my way, however it turns out. Just let me know how to pay ( paypal???)
Well the OG logo is out. Not sure if its trademarked as they do not have the required license mark. But I am not going to push the issue.
We could purchase the patch and have our team name embroidered around it if we wish. Would be easy to do but another added cost.
I will see what I can do this week on my own unless we want to go the patch route.
Problem with that is the patches are sold out.
What you think?
Gods Of Thunder logo on the front.
Turkey track on the side.
OldGobbler on the back.
There is a pdf file at the bottom to look at.
Im out, this design stuff is out of my league. ;D
[attachment deleted by admin]
Actually I can work with that. I would add the old gobbler under on the front though. Will work with what you got. I have an idea also for a bird skull as it seems we like death more then feet.
Adding a logo to the back and sides will probably add more to the hats. Each new logo is a new setup. I am sure he gets a setup charge every time he needs to turn the hat and hit enter.
I tried all avenues for the OG logo. Even buying a right of release. Guess they had issues so its a no/go.
I'm good with whatever you guys decide on the hat. I don't have an artistic bone in my body!
Sounds great. As soon as you get it together post it up and let everyone see it and ill start getting orders up.
Lets give it until Friday night. On Sat we pick 1 posted and go with it.
Creek I like your oval with some tweaks right now. So unless I come up with a logo by friday your the man.
Tweaks to your oval would be old gobbler.com smaller type under oval. Oval larger to incorporate the turkey track along the side of the Thunder. I can make these changes if you wish if I am unable to get the creative juices flowing this week.
I gave all of our ideas to the guy who is going to do the hats to see what a pro could come up with. He mentioned maybe incorporating lightning into the fonts and even a skull into the fonts. He asked to give him a few days and he would have us something to look at.
Alright here is my brain storm. I can change anything you guys want. Tried to keep the colors "hunter like" May need to tweak colors when we decide on a camo pattern. I could also place on a background. I see know I need to clean up the grip, and maybe run the wood grip up to the mag and barrel and eliminate the gap. I will place this on a camo background tommorrow when I get a chance. I will even turn an effect on to represent embroidery if you guys wish.
Let me know if I should pursue further revisions or give up.

I should have a test decal in a day or two to show you guys. Like I said earlier, i'm going to get them and send them out to you guys shortly.
Anybody have any more input on a color they'd prefer...going to try to keep them all one color.
Speak now or suffer to my passion for fashion... :TooFunny: :TooFunny: :TooFunny: :TooFunny:
Last logo attempt for me. The camo background represents the hat.
(http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z233/madarchery/oldgobblerlogo.jpg)
Saturday we should get a vote and get ordering if we are going to do this.
I kinda like that, can we get it in pink??? :TooFunny:

Looks good to me.
Our hat guy is working up a logo as well and should have it for us Monday to look at.
:z-winnersmiley:
Do we want fitted hats or one size fits all?
