[KahrMan]

Anybody going this weekend?  I am going to the vendor show Saturday.  Will probably get there right as they open in hopes of beating some of the crowds.

Good luck with parking, pay or walk for close to a mile or more.

I am not kidding, Gaylord is bad for parking.

They run shuttles for the convention. Usually a short walk to the pick up spot for the shuttle.

Pretty good show. I picked up a box call and a couple mouth calls. Looked at a lot of spandex.

Was a great show again this year.  A little too much jewelry and duck calls though.  Picked up on some Hevi-Shot Magnum Blend Shells (3.5" - 2 1/4th) for $30 each.  Hevi-Shot is running a $10 rebate on for up to two boxes right now so that was a bonus.  Retail on those shells are normally around $36 plus tax.  Also picked up a custom made walnut waterproof box call from a company called Tru-Tone Custom Calls to go with the waterproof slate call that I bought from them at last years show.  Lots of good / discounted prices at the show.

One of the neatest things(to me) at that show every year is the custom labels from wild turkey bourbon. They will print you a label with your specific wording. All you do is apply it over the existing label. This year it was again for the "rare breed" bottle. Makes a great gift or conversation piece when you break out a bottle of your own label.
