Thanks Shaun, always plan to get to one of those big Trad shows in the US.


Cheers,

Way to go Shaun, It was fun to visit with you and I was glad to share the room, it worked out good for both.
If you can ever make a big show like this, it is worth it. We had many personalities in the building this past weekend, and they will most often make themselves available for a chat, I was able to meet Biggie and Marty and Joe Buck this weekend. Caught up with some old buds too like Shaun, 4runner,Mr. Rabittman, Herdbull, The brothers of the bow and many others that are good ole regular guy's. Thanks to all that stopped to talk. Good luck on your hunts Shaun.

Great pics Shaun.  It was another great year at the show.  I always enjoy going to Kalamazoo!!  

Yes Norm was there but just as a visitor.  I hadn't seen Norm in quite a while and it was good to see him out and about!    :thumbsup:

I could spend a ton of money in a place like that. It's probably a good thing for my bank account that I am a long way from KZoo. A veritable bowhunting candy store!

It was good to say howdy again Shaun. Thanks for all the pics. I went with the sole purpose of shaking hands and chatting with so many of the friends I've made on this site. Sure was good to see everyone again. I did shoot a few bows, and that's always enjoyable. The little short Shrew blew me away with it's performance. Bill's new evolution limbs on the Zipper was so smooth and fast. I shot the St. Joe River bows for the first time and was very impressed.

The best part was seeing my friend Colin take it all in for the first time.

Closest I have come to a big trad show was Pro-Bow in Salt Lake City year before last. Those of us in the Rocky Mountains would really like something like this. Denver would be central.

Heck, If you guys will throw one in Casper, Wyoming I'll do the leg work for you and even arrange a pronghorn/trout tour.
We do have the facilities....
