Seems like there is some resentment about the issue? Kinda weird blaming attendance on hunters not showing up? Might be with the great economy everyone was off on a vacation? It may have been a flop without the date change? I’d think that the promoters would do whatever they think best… people can always adjust their schedules?
I didn’t spend a lot this year, but I did take stock of what was available, deals, venders, etc. I am now regretting not being more prepared with what I needed and what was a good price. It was good to go and see some of the people I don’t get to see that often, and meet others.
The ironic thing is that I skipped Washington hunting this year for the first time since 90 – 94’ (Army).
My first time at the snow show in 7 years, always missed for opening weekend rifle hunting. There is always something open that time of year. Modern rifle is the most "attended" of the seasons. I guess if you ended up just doing it for me then Thanks!
And even if you didn't change the datejust for me, Thanks for continuing having the show and supporting the sport!!!
