Good afternoon,

As Africa's leading Hunting Magazine, we've been planning to launch an Africa Only Hunting Show in the USA for quite some time.
The show will be held on 14 & 15 January 2011 at the Grand Hyatt in Buckhead, Atlanta GA.

No sheep, no deer, no bears, no turkeys......
Only African Hunting Outfitters and equipment that relates to Hunting the Great Continent of Africa.

Entrance fee: $40 for both days or $60 which includes a year’s subscription to the African Hunting Gazette.

Please feel free to contact me on craig@thefuture.co.za if you have any questions.

We hope to see all the AR members there.

The federally imposed, mandatory last day of duck and goose hunting throughout the US is January 30. States are free to close their seasons earlier, but I don't think many do. And frequently, the last week or so provides the best hunting of the year, as more ducks move south, at least at my lattitude.

When you plan your next show, you ought to keep that in mind.

Be sure to put out reminders, I would like to attend but with my memory I am likely to forget about it between now and then.


Good Hunting,

Ditto JPK. I go to the DSC every year and am usually punished by missing some of the greatest duck hunting of the year. I wish the show was mid-week. I don't mind missing work.

Thanks guys,

In future, we'll keep the wingshooting season in mind.
The reason for the show falling on the 14th & 15th of January is to allow many of the exhibitors time to get to Altanta from Dallas, and enough time after the show to get to Reno.

What about hunting agents?? Will you allow them to exhibit?? Will they only be allowed to display African hunting safaris??

I will be there.

Feb would be the best month however. But then you have leftovers as far as hunts after Dallas and Reno.

I just passed along your information about the show to our local chapter SCI president and hopefully he will pass the word along to everyone. I would really like to see this be a success since it is right in my backyard.

Also just sent out word of it to some friends in RSA that are PH/outfitters.


Good Hunting,

I surely would like to see the proposed exhibitor list as it matures.

I too miss a good week of waterfowling to be in Dallas. This past show was the best week of duck hunting of the entire year in middle TN. I will make them pay in two weeks when I get back to Africa. FYI: The NWTF show is in February (Nashville). It draws a huge crowd and has set attendance records the last two years. There's always going to be a hitch in setting show dates, and getting the right slot means making it or not. Best of luck with the show. I'll come if at all possible.
Cheers,
David

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

Does this mean some of the outfitters banned from SCI/DSC have a new home?

All joking aside, I hope this is a success.


I meant to be DSC Member...bad typing skills.

Thanks for your replies gentlemen.

Some of the finest and most respected outfitters in Africa have already registered and no, it's not a new home for shady outfitters that have been kicked out of other hunting shows and professional hunting orginisations.

Some of the outfitters that will be at the show include Martin Pieters Safaris, Game Trackers Africa, African Field Sports, Shona Hunting Adventures, Omujeve Safaris, Stormberg Elangeni Safaris, just to name a few.
I'll keep you all updated as the exhibitor list comes closer to completion.

ATL being a mere three hour drive from my home, I suspect I'll be there too.

That will make THREE hunting shows in January for little ol' me.

I am glad to see that I am not the only one that hates that these other events come during duck season.

How about a link to the convention?
Thanks!
