I went once when the convention was in Reno. It was about 6 years ago or so. As you mentioned, it was expensive. I spent about three hours there and left. I didn’t try to talk to any of the notables there because really, what am I going to discuss? I mean like “ Mr Boddington, sir, do you really think the 375 h&h is big enough for elephant?” Or, Mr Shockey, how do you manage to take so much time off from being a husband, father, guide and whatever else to make TV shows? Duhh ! Gimme a break. Sorry, but when I got out of the crowds, I breathed a sigh of relief and enjoyed the drive home. I did enjoy seeing the mounted game and seeing the custom rifles I will never be able to afford. They were beautiful! There flame on. I’m done with the negative post. I still belong to SCI !
