I'm sure everyone knows this but it starts Sat. Feb 6th. What some may not know is if you go to Bass Pro store they have a shuttle(more like 3-5 buses) running all day every day. Free to take and return.

My son and his finance' went with me and they had a blast. It was her 1st time there.
I found several turkey calls, a TC backpack and a TC rifle case. Thompson Center was there with a custom build your own TC center. Only the second year they have been there. Nice people and fun to look at options.


My son saw two famous people there -R. Lee Ermey http://www.rleeermey.com/
Gunnery Sergeant, drill instructor, Vietnam veteran, actor and former MAIL CALL host. at the SOG knife booth

and Tim Boetsch-Nick Name- The Barbarian--A mixed martial artist. He holds the record for fastest knockout in UFC-8 seconds on a slam.

Light crowd and very few obnoxious people this year-maybe the snow kept them away.

Hope you all get a chance to go, John

FWIW it snows 3 feet every year either during the Farm Show or Eastern Outdoors show. It's good times but I find it exhausting and crowded with not a whole lot to buy. The bass fishing is cool though.
