If anyone is going I have a favor to ask: shoot a pic of any new traditional gear that looks interesting.

I happen to be off next Friday. May try to see if I can go. Haven’t been to one in a good while now.

Well I would have taken some pics but IMHO, what traditional bows that were there just were not what I was hoping for. From a distance they looked good but when I got my hands on some of them it was obvious that they were all mass produced with very little "hand made" going into them. Fit and finish was fair at best on most of them. Based on a couple of conversations with the folks in the booths, they are cut on a CNC and then hand finished. Was still a great time seeing all of the awesome gear out there!

That's unfortunate - thanks for looking!

Lots of cool stuff from what I saw of the bow hunt or die videos. Really interested in the new Hawk trail cameras and some of the new dead down wind stuff.
I question the direction Hawk is going though. Nobody can be good at everything, and a lot of their accessories are gimmicky.

This ugly weather is going to keep me home from the show. I really wanted to get my hand on and shoot the new TenPoint crossbows. They have created quite a stir on the Internet..
I understand the timing for the manufacturers but attendance can sure get messed up with weather this time if the year.

Yeah my road is a sheet of ice and it's far from straight or flat. I'm not going out until they treat it. Have not heard/seen one vehicle on it yet this morning.

I thought about trying today, but no one else was going up there today either. I have major hills to go down or climb to get to any civilization, so that wasn’t happening today. I don’t think anyone around us has left today either.
