Just checking if anybody else is going.

I'll be there tomorrow. I honestly rarely buy anything or listen to many of the speakers, I just enjoy going because to me it's a sign that Spring is here and Turkey season is around the corner.

I've never been to one. What goes on there besides speakers and trophy mounts?

Took a trip up to Minocqua and back today...really seeing the turkeys and deer looks like a bumper crop made it through the winter...

A ton of outdoor businesses sell things in the main room. It's basically a giant outdoor bazaar.

Yup, saw their booth. Very impressed with their lineup. Their diamondback line is much clearer than I expected. I think my next upper will have one of their optics on it.

Also handled their $1200 binos.

I love seeing a Wisconsin based company do so well.

I used to go every year...I don't go anymore.

After paying for parking, and entry, any 'deal' you may find there is quickly negated and I rarely found anything I couldn't get online.  Typically it's 3/4's destination hunt guides...which if that's what you're looking for that's great, but it's not what I'm looking for.  

Speakers are usually OK, but I rarely see enough of them I want to attend that I want to wait around for them.  


If you've never been to it or you're looking for a guide/destination hunt, it's probably worth a shot.
