Well I made it up yesterday and was there from 10-4. I didnt see anything new that caught my eye. I did get to meet Lee and Tiffany. The Copenhagen booth is always fun to walk through right off the bat.I can never bring myself to actually buy anything there(?) haha.. I will generally ponder on the thought and then pick it up before the season? The only thing that REALLY even made me think about buying was the Commonsense line of lure, really makessence the way they advertise the stuff!I did get the chance to shoot the bull with Andy(Diesel77) again this year and got to check out the prototype on his new fleece line they got coming out, it looks good I cant wait to get some!! I talked to some of the other UC staff and they allare great guys! If you get the chance to swing by there booth and talk to the guys and check there stuff out you wont be disappointed!!! Its a shame they couldnt have this show about mid august, could you imagine the money being thrown around then?

I am kinda out of the "hunting stage" now and getting primed up for trout season. Although they didnt really have much on the fishing side that caught my eye, I did pick up a new Trout Magnet set as the other one I have is getting pretty low. All in all I got my fix of outdoor gear for this year, I will be back next year to check out some more stuff.

1:00pm Goose Hunting & Calling with Sean Mann Outdoors & Cabela?s Seminar Room Main Hall [:@] Edit: just left the show and am at the Glass Lounge awaiting my steak dinner. We had a great time and really enjoyed meeting up with the boys from the net. No time to go into detail but Rob or Matt can take it from here. I gotta eat. BTW anyone lookn for some awesome camo, give Andy (Diesel) a pm.

It was good to meet some more of the HNI guys today at the Ultimate Camo booth. I believe Matt has what may be a pretty interesting photo to post when he gets the chance. Fun day and I scored a pretty good deal on a Bow Vise.


I thought the price looked low. I paid 19.99, and when Rob got home (and I was busy taking the lady to dinner), I got a text saying they were selling on Cabelas for 89.99. Pretty sweet.

Ben, what vise was it by they way? I picked up one that's essentially exactly the apple bow vise for the same price a year back.

Matt / PA

I really enjoyed Rick White and Matt Morrett having a laugh at Ben's expense over his blatant misuse of the HS Butt-Out tool.

Rick White......."Did ya pull a fawn out?" [:-]

Rob/PA Bowyer

That was a really good moment.


Who has the group picture? Bob Foulkrod was pulling on my chest hair! [8D]

Haha, yeah Rob thats what you get for having your shirt open Don Johnson style! Foulkrod had fun with you guys. I'll post the picture tonight.Thanks to all the HNI guys that stopped by, so many good guys on this site.

Rick, I didnt forget, your HSS vest is first on the list.
Frank, you sure have purty eyes lol!!
Matt, I'll keep you posted on the SD hunt dates.

Ben / PA

Yeah, nothing gets laughs like a botched attempt at a radical hysterictemy. That story still has miles yet to go. Fun day guys, glad I could spread joy and laughter.

Rob/PA Bowyer

I'm sure we'll still be laughing come next season, same hunt.
