Mark in SC2008 SCI Convention Photos - Spectacular Taxidermy & More!
Holly and I attend the SCI Convention every year to see the sights, visit with friends and beg for donations for our Chapter's Annual Fundraiser.
The most impressive part of the Convention each year, in my opinion, is the display of world-class taxidermy.
I always take lots of photos and put them up on the Chapter website to show our Members what they missed and encourage them to attend the Convention.
I thought the AR.com Members who don't attend the Convention might like to take a look also.
Go to the Chapter website at
www.scilowcountry.org then click the "What's News" button on the left and follow the link to "2008 SCI Convention Photos."
To see photos from previous SCI Conventions, click the "SCI In The News" button. Photos from the last 5 Conventions are available there.
IMHO it's worth joining SCI if only for the priviledge of attending the Convention every year! I hope you enjoy the photos.

yukon deltaThanks for the photos. You don't often see a double polar bear mount. The lions are fantastic.

Thanks for the photos.
Do you remember what company/builders take-down rifles are in the display cases, # 4&5 from the end. Thanks

Mark in SCI'm sorry, but I don't remember.
Maybe someone else who attended the convention will be able to answer your question.

Thanks for the replies.
I don't think it is Empire for several reasons.
My only guess would be Martini & Hagn but I don't think that is who it is.
Way too many TD's for anybody that I am familiar with.
