I really enjoyed meeting you guys, it really feels nice to be able to meet and have a conversation with some of you and know that you really are as nice and informal as you all seem on here. Thanks for being there and being so welcome and warm-hearted. I definately appriciate the decal and beanie hat I got too, I will post some pictures of the decal on my truck in the near future

I think the only person I met whom I hadn't already met in person was Greg/MO who managed to track me down at the NAP booth for a bit. Greg - I stopped by the Bowtech booth before I left but you weren't around. Probably out yacking away as usual. 
In my 2 1/2 hour visit to the show I managed to see the guys from Lone Wolf, Todd Pringnleberries at the WKP booth, Art Helin at NAP, Travis and Freddie at Archer's Choice, and of course my favorite person in the world Christine and K. Holmes at the IL Bowfishers booth. Oh, and I briefly met Robin Parks too. Nice fish by the way.
Unfortunately prior obligations dictated that I had to be home on Sunday or I would've stayed longer. I'm lucky I got out when I did - 30 mph for 2 1/2 hours on the way home in an ice storm was not my idea of fun. Lots of cars and trucks off in the ditch, some rightside up, some upside down. It was nasty.
I fully intend on being at the WI show all day Sat and Sun in the White Knuckle booth, so hopefully I'll get to meet some more people.
As a side note - the WKP DVD is available in the HuntingNet store at the link below:

And here's the proof that I was at the show.

I just want to state for the record...that if Justin would have waited until that evening to head home, the roads would have been better. I made my hour drive home in just about an hour at 6:00!! Goes to show that you should have waited!!
Thanks for the link for the video justin!
I still wish Todd would have let us know he was there, I would have made it a point to stop! But then again, I might have missed the post. I do know the video looks good as I stood and watched it at the booth while I was waiting for my wife to get back from the bathroom with one of the kids.

I got to talk to Todd and Walt(stickbow26) at the Whiteknuckle booth. They both seem like they would be great to be in a deer camp with. They both love to talk hunting and we shared a few stories. The video is well done too. Shows more of the hunting and how and why they set up where they do. Not just sitting in a stand and shooting the deer. I think they have a good idea of what hunters really want to see in a video. They also show the many days and hours of not seeing deer or the one they want. More real life hunting than a lot of the others.
I think I left just in time, around 2:45.The ice was just starting to build up on my truck when I got to it. The roads were a little slushy but not too bad. I headed South so I drove out of the ice and only saw rain the rest of the way.
