Uncle Paul, Iam glad thatIam not the only one who has noticed less shooters and less venders at these shoots. But in my opinion the shoot locations have very little to do with the drop in attendance. I think it would be a goodidea for the IBO to survey its membersseewhat some of their concerns are. If the majority of the members had similar issues these issues could be addressed and maybe the attendance would increase. But what do I know? Iam just a dumb hillbilly.
