Another great convention.

Always good to see friends and meet new ones.

Lots and lots of hunts booked. Cats and elephants were selling like hot cakes.

Cat hunting is going to be a big battle on the dark continent and I am not sure we will win.

Hunters spend money on safaris and conservation while the antis spend it on politicians and therefore they win. Look at Zambia. Not good.

Tanzania hunts were not booking; just way to much money. Start At 30k or more

I cannot believe how many fenced whitetail ranches there are. I would say 1 out of 5 at the convention is selling monster fenced whitetails.

Lots of awesome taxidermy work like always.

Not as many people in attendance but the people that were there were serious hunters.

The show heads back to Las Vegas next year.

Ivan Carter is amazing. Chatted with him for an hour and he is just a normal guy like the rest of us. He signed a poster for my youngster. Great guy. What an open book of knowledge. Same can be said for Craig Boddington.
 
Ivan hooked me up with the very last elephant hunt in the okavango with johan calitz. He's also assisting me with the importation of my last trophies from zim. He's an awesome guy.

I also picked up a cancelation hunt from club faune for a lord derby eland/bongo combination hunt. It was discounted severly and I couldn't let it go.

I also found the Reno buffets to be much better than Vegas. Lets just say I had an awesome weekend.

You know whats even more odd than anything? I didn't plan a single one of these hunts. My wife found all these deals and "PUSHED" them on me. I couldn't dare even think about booking a hunt for an 80lb tusker with Johan Calitz but my wife said I deserve all the hunts she scheduled and more. I've got to have the most amazing wife in the entire world. I don't know why she spoils me so much. Now I just have to wait for my 6pm flight out tomorrow and wait for my fully booked year of hunting.
 
Let me add one more thing. Normally I don't brag because everyone hates that but in this situation I think a few choice words are in order.

heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllllllllllllllllllllllllllll YEAH biches! I'm gonna be one huntin some beech this year baby. all you haters can kiss my azz! this rednecks gonna tear some chit up!



Sorry, I just had to get that out of my system! good luck on the draw guys. As for me, those f'ing draws can kiss my azz. I'm bypassin that f'd up system and jumping straight to the front of the bad azz huntin line this year!


I feel like I just won the redneck lottery! MY WIFE RULES!
 
Just got home from SCI and Wild Sheep. Think I saw Stomper charging around to the next aile(sp), with Qtpie in tow heading towards the Caliz booth. LOL. Big guy, wide, dark hair.

from the "Heartland of Wyoming"
 
Really? U shoulda stopped me. No really u should have. Im gonna have to mortgage my wifes chest to pay for that elephant hunt.
