Hoping to make it up myself....I usually find some good show specials...and nothing quite like walking into an arena with 200+ guys blowing turkey and duck calls at the same time. It's a religious experience! LOL

Got friends coming in from Illinois just to see the show this year. A buddy from WV will be with us too Looks like we'll have a three state gang there Wed or Thurs.

If you're going to be there the 13th or 14th stop by qdma's booth. I'm going to do a seminar on patterning individual bucks using trail cameras, as well as an intro to the 4 cornerstones of QDM (herd management, herd monitoring, habitat management, and hunter management). There's a bunch of other seminars throughout the week, and a lot of knowledgeable guys there to answer any and all questions.

the price to get in 12 dollars and parking fee, i think 5 dollars is just plain AWFUL.then prices are expensive, you can do better on net........
we used to all load up in trucks and go and this year i have not found 1 person in my area that is going.parking fee should be enough .......
if economy was great , i could see it but things are not very good.i really miss going too........

i would go if BTB could speak on deer hunting

LOL! Thanks Sproul. They tried to book me but they didnt want to pay enuff!

Going with my Dad, probably the last day or possibly during the week. We've been going for many years. It's sort of a tradition, plus we visit with our friend that owns the lodge in Canada where we've going fishing the last 18 years.

It cost to get in now? When did this happen?

Always did ever since I can remember.

I havent been to one in about 10 to 15 years and I don't remember a fee to enter it.
Also had free parking. Things change I guess.
