Any one attend it yet?  .....Alex

I was there on friday.
 
It w3asn't as big as we were hoping, but it was well organized and enjoyable. 
 
I hope they continue it despite the low exhibitor response.  Some guys in the business attributed this to the fact that they announced late, and many potential exhibitors had already committed their advertising dollars to other events.  If they continue, and announce right away, it should be much bigger next year.

Rick, I was also there Friday afternoon, approx 2:30 to 4:30, we probably crossed paths. The show was a little smaller than I expected, but I spent a lot of time watching some of the videos...There was a booth that was on a corner that was showing Archery videos, man some of those hunters got awful close to some of the moose, before doing their deed, a little to close for me...
 
Hope the show returns, but one scope vendor, told me he would not return unless the location was changed to a bigger centre....Alex
