    I go every year, always something to see or buy, not as much hunting as one would like but still gets a guy out of the house, my older brother and I go together every year......kind of a tradition and an excuse to go for lunch !

    I'm going boat shopping. The hunting stuff is usually limited. The COs are usually there, I've stopped and asked them questions a couple times. It's not a great show but it is a great excuse to leave the house.

    We go most years, Wife and I will probably head out for the Friday opening as it's not near as busy as the Sat - Sun crowd.
    It's a decent "all in one" kinda show.
    Last year Son and I went, he spent maybe $4 or 500 on fishing stuff, I basically bought some salmon. He was looking at the fishing punts, was a good venue for comparing different makes.
    Son can't make it this year but has given me a small "want" list.
    If you go, get the tickets online and avoid the long line ups to get in.

    Are there any good speakers/shows inside the show?
    I know I went to Seattle years ago.
    I listened to Brian Chan, and talked with him.
    Got to meet Larry D Jones (who was my mentor with his elk hunting videos) and he took the time to speak with me
    for over an hour. (really is a big elk hunting fan!)
    Did realize there were some writers of the hunting magazines who gave a seminars, that really weren't the best at advice
    because most of them used GO's, and didn't really do all the leg work themselves.

    It I probably good to "support" the show, but I wonder how good it really is? or could it be a lot better?
