I'll be there this year. I think I'll probably be going on Saturday, but I'll have to talk to my Dad to be sure. Last year we helped out in a friends booth so we were there on Fri/Sat/Sun.
I'll be in the BH.com Booth. We will be located next to the WKP Boys if you remember where they were.
I'm going to be at the Illinois Bowfishers booth. I'll either be helping kids shoot a bow, BSing about bowfishing and/or hunting, helping with the Bowfishing Extreme booth...or just wandering aimlessly.
I'll be making the Road Trip as well. I'll be at the Rut Junkie Booths, located at the entrance to the Deer Display area. Hope to put a few faces with names!
The cool people will be in the last row of the main building. ....oh and bring the kiddos to our archery booth.
how about some info, when, where is it being held at? how far from st louis?? any good tech/ hunting seminars. deer scoring?? what info will i need to bring to enter the deer head and bring home my buck and can i do that in one day?
Feb 26, 27, 28th. It's in Bloomington, IL. Info here: http://www.deerinfo.com/illinoishome.asp Expect to see between 400- 550 sets of antlers.
Well I was going to go but checked my work schedule Im scheduled for night shifts that weekend 12 hr 6.00 to 6.00, and to be able to go for one day I would have to take two days off SO, dosent look like ill go!
You ain't holding my hand wierdo! But I will sleep in your Hotel room. Maybe I'll just stay on the WKP side of the booth!!:D Or bring my handshake shocker!
Bloomington, IL About 3 hours North of StL. Check out Christine's link http://www.deerinfo.com/illinoishome.asp Lots of seminars. Yes you can get your buck scored, but if you want to get it done in one day, get there early. It gets to be a madhouse back there. If you want to enter it in the contest you have to stay until late Sunday and then everyone is trying to get their heads out at the same time. Not a speedy process.
thanks i ck it out , 220 miles guess i will wait until mo deer classic in Columbia mo. around 100 miles but with smaller deer and no christine hmmmm.:D
We went to the St Louis deer classic in Collinsville last year and it....well it sucked. I haven't been to the IL classic since it was in Springfield. To tell you how long ago that was......Noel Feather was one of the seminar speakers.
John, you're more than welcome to come and help us with the kid's archery range. On those rare slow times, we shoot rubberbands at the guys in the booth across from us. :D
Are you guys still collecting old hunting magazines for soldiers Christine? I remember you'd said something about that last year. Hopefully my Dad hasn't gone through and thrown out any.
Yes Brandon, if you bring 'em I'll send them out. Thanks for remembering that. Any hunting/car/guys type magazines and DVD's.
That you do! We'll be across from Christine in booths 1901-1904 selling Rut Junkie Apparel. Stop by and see how to win a couple of bear hunting trips to my Ontario camp as well as fishing trips and other prizes. Website will be up soon as well....the boys here are putting together a great site!
And singing Koom Bye Ah (or however the hell you spell that)! It's gonna be a good ole time! I'll be there Saturday as well. I look forward to seeing some of you I haven't seen in a while and maybe meeting up with some I haven't met. If you guys need some help, let me know. I'll be in my hotel room, asleep. :D
