You might see Chamberlain up there in a kings chair with the Twra officials and other state's officials like Chuck Sykes from bama bowing down and feeding him grapes and cheese…

Already have my hotel room reserved for next year. Was supposed to go in 2022 had a room, but we got that really bad ice storm and didn't want to chance driving from Clarksville through the mountains.

More than likely staying home, but would like to go since I am looking for a new 20 gauge semi auto and most of the ones I am interested in have booths. Retay, Franchi, Stoeger and TriStar, Weatherby. Nice to see all the guns at once. But not worth the crowd.

I was planning on going Friday because I wanted to see some items in person before pulling the trigger on something. But, work has gotten in the way so I reckon I'll save some gas money and avoid the crowds at least.

Not a chance. I don't want one nickel of my money going to the NWTF.
The bigger it got, the less I enjoyed it. Back in the late 2000s, early 2010s i'd go about every other year. Last went about 5 years ago and realized I really had no desire to go back. When they gave The Hunting Public the Communicator of the Year award last year, my membership ceased.

Planning on it but never know. We could be abducted or invaded by then.
Headed up tomorrow morning.

I had to look into this. Appears they justified giving it to them by their fundraising efforts, which admittedly it sounds like they did an excellent job raising money for the "Alabama Wild Turkey Gobbling Study".
Me, I am giving them the "Pimp of the Year" award.
Reckon what the monetary value is of the loss of public land hunting opportunities they've helped contribute to? Way the hell more than the amount they raised and will ever donate, that is for sure.
It allowed that option today. I paid $35 to join and I get $25 bass pro card.
How much are tickets for one day there web site sucks.

This giant convention which has resulted in the commercialization of turkey hunting is exactly what is wrong with turkey hunting has become.
Real turkey hunting is supposed to be about you, the bird, and a call. If you disagree, you just don't get it yet. Hopefully you do before you die or the birds die off.

$35 for the annual membership, BUT you get a $25 BassPro gift card with that.
The site I used was easy to navigate and it gives you a QR code for check in.

I went today right when they opened. Walked in at 8:30 and out at 10:45. Crowed wasn't terrible then but was building fast when we walked out

I go every yr, and have a good time. But, there needs to be wayyyyyyyy less clothing for sale!! I love looking at products, but when every other booth is selling a shirt or hats with a logo, it's exhausting. You can find some deals though buying direct from the manufacture without paying shipping.
