    For those who want to meet up Saturday, we will be meeting outside the Seminar area in the lower level around 11am. Chase, Tyler, Alissa, and myself will be attending a seminar at 10 most likely. Hope to meet some of you there! [​IMG]

    I just called my shop the other day to see if he can get me a set of bowstix. No one around me carries them.

    Well Tom, wanted to meet you while you are here but I am not driving to Ankeny, Waukee or anywhere else this evening. Bummer, but I got enough mineral to hopefully entice every bruiser in the county to stop by and get his photo taken this year. Have a safe trip back tomorrow.

    Thanks for the offer really appreciate it. Think I will just wait and try to give my business to my local pro shop. He helps me out so much and I know he is going to be pissed when he finds out I ordered my bowfishing rig from bps. I owe him! LOL If he can't get it I will just look for it at the Wisconsin show in a month.

    Them because they are so small.

    Here are a few photos I took of Top Sheds and Archery Deer from IA. We also took some time to enjoy seminars at the show.

    Had a great time at the show. Tom and Pat are good people as were all the folks I met at their booth. Sad to see the decline in bucks this year. Over harvest and EHD have really taken a toll on the Iowa deer herd. But, it will bounce back. I'll just have to use plenty of Monster Raxx to give them a boost!

    Just got back to Wisconsin from the show and had a great time! Met a few guys from here and saw a lot of cool stuff. Can't wait to come back next year and shoot the 3D popup. Other than my arm killing me all weekend it was a great time!

    It was great seeing every one and meeting a few members I have not before. Sorry I missed you Coop that was a crazy drive down. Glad you came out to dinner Dave loved seeing all those big buck pics.
