Default Please Read, A Note From UMI Performance

Hello Members,

Nothing bad, but I just wanted to make everyone aware of a situation as much as possible. On Monday morning I was involved in a hunting accident and fell 15-20 feet from my tree stand. I have been in the Hospital for 2 days with a fractored collar bone and a dislocated shoulder, everything seems fine with a possibability of surgery but doubtful.

Anyways, I am posting this just because my e-mail responses and PM responses might be a little slower for the next few days, I am currently struggling to type this. Marlena and Jerry will be replying as usual but if there is something they can not answer it will be fowarded to me. So I just wanted to give everyone a heads up, just give me some extra time to reply to questions and shipping delays.

Thank you!
Ryan

Dang man. Talk about top notch customer service.

If I was laid up in the hospital I wouldn't have logged in & typed this explaination. I would have just told someone to do it for me.

Don't worry about us, get well & back home first.

Hope you have a speedy recovery Ryan. Sorry to hear of your accident.

Did you at least get a deer first?

Glad to hear you are okay Ryan.

Remember, falls over 20 feet are often fatal.

A buddy of mine still has a type 2 collar bone break which can't be fixed, so I hope yours isn't as serious.

Consider yourself lucky, Get well soon!

I wonder what would have happened if it was snowing and cold instead of 50 degrees!

Sorry to hear your hurt... hopefully you don't need any surgery and if there's anything I can do, let me know.

Dayem Ryan, hope you have a speedy recovery and right before the holidays and during a 10% off sale. Talk about bad timing!

Not to be taken the wrong way, but I did order a set of LCA's and was told I may have a 3-4 week delivery date. Has this sale put you guys in the backseat as far as distribution goes?

Ryan, I wish you a good and speedy recovery. I had a friend fall from 35' on his feet and now has permanent damage to his body. Seems you were lucky so far.

Rest and take it easy.
