Educational seminars on diverse subjects ranging from bowhunting mule deer tactics and how everyone can teach archery, to instinctive shooting and women bowhunting with independence, will be presented by such speakers as Randy Ulmer, Roy Grimes, Fred Asbell, Dr. Ed Ashby and others.
Luncheons will feature Curt Wells and Tom Miranda.
The Live Auction, Saturday afternoon, features dozens of fantastic hunts ranging from Illinois’ whitetail hunts to Alaska brown bear hunts to an Alberta combo hunt for moose, mule deer and whitetail deer, to a Gredos Ibex hunt in Spain.
