What is there at this year's convention that is a "must see"? In there anything particularly interesting or new?

Buzz's hair. (Just kidding Buzz, please do not walk me into the dirt.)

All kidding aside, I think taking a look at the new English-style Heyms would be "must see".

Visiting the Guild guys will be great, kind of like a Meet Your Maker! Gotta see Ken at VC, Bailey, Lou Hallimore at HHK, Pierre von Tonder, Johnny Hulme, my buds at Griffin & Howe, Mark at Bansner, Alex at Euro Otics, Chris and Tony at Heym, and I'm sure much more, once I see the itinerary.

Re the new Heym stock, a co-worker of mine just shot the Heym rifles in .450 NE and .470 NE and said the stock was just great.

You know another must see occurred to me, I want to stop and visit with Wendell Reich who I understand is going much better after his neck surgery last year.

The new Heym Express Bolt rifles are worth a look.

Not to mention my favorite "little" Heym, the 26B O/U.

First I will:

1. Say hello to the PH's I have hunted with
2. Check out the taxidermy displays
3. Find a few new hunting books I just have to read
4. Check out the AR room and see who's there

Does Global Rescue offer any discounts if purchased during the show?

I have seen it discounted years ago.

Tip: See if they donated to any of the auctions. Sometimes you can pick it up at live or silent auction for pennies on the dollar.

Scott, it's only like 650.00 annually, including the "executive extraction" insurance. A bargain.

I'll still be on Guam, so I am looking forward to the reports. I am really looking forward to attending again next year and seeing friends I have not seen in four years!
