Dear Santa,


I’ve been a super good boy this year and I was hoping you could do me a huge favor and give me everything I ask for It’s not like I’ve ever asked for much in the past. Being you’re an outdoor guy this year my list might be a bit bigger.

Ok first of all I just want to thank everyone for their input last time about the logos.  This will be my last business type post for while. I need to get back to posting about hunting & fishing.

Now I'm in the final selection stage of my logo and can't just pick one I like them all to much. Could you help me out again and let me know which one you like the best. 

Just keep in mind some day I want to put these on hats, shirts, and business cards.

Please let me know which one is your favorite and If you have any suggestions on changes to any of the logos please let me know (colors, fonts, anything goes).

Can you help Ben G. Outdoors achieve our 2010 Goals?
