Post What did you see at the Sportsman's Show?
A lot of the same as most all sportsman's shoes. And guns shows too. LOL

I went today, good crowd before the big crowd tomorrow. I went by the Mud Boat vendors. Hardly anyone in the booths. I went to look close up at a Gator Tail and the guy that helped me did not seem to know much. Like what a momentary switch is and if GT had one. They have some cool boats and motors. I like a GT painted black. Boats are clean looking and lots of open space. I liked that rig that was tricked out for bowfishing.

Went to the Prodrive booth and not too many people to help there either, but I looked inside a cut away motor they had. I poked around, no one spoke to me---which is not a big deal because I mostly like to look around without someone holding my hand.

GoDevil, same thing. Gator Trax, same thing. But they were talking to about 4 other people.

I went to see if anyone had the Cajun Sucker Punch bow. I saw one but it was packaged. There sure are a lot of outfitters and land management booths. Lots of people from other states. A beef jerky booth, they were from Colorado. Too many booths that had nothing to do with outdoors, but if you cannot sell to outdoors vendors, then sell to whomever wants to buy a booth. The woman that had an art booth where she used a hand grinder to carve wood and plywood louisiana scenes was quite a craftsman and artist.

The best thing at the show for me? Testing out the Millennium Boat seats. WOW, they were comfortable like sitting in the living room. And not sure that I would not get the one that you can straddle. These are great ideas, the mesh, the fit, and that one like a saddle makes sense.

There was an archery store that did not seem to have any bows. There were some people in front of his booth but no bows.
The small booths, seem to have a bunch of helpers. The boat dealers were short on people. I hate people giving away an ATV but wanting to talk to you about Time Shares. :lol:

What did yall see, anything new?

I was there and did notice the seats. If the Rep went over to the godevil Booth he couldn't have been there long cause getting the Rep to answer any questions was like pulling teeth. Anyone have any experience with those hydroflats fiberglass boats.? The guy in the Booth swears they'll hold up in timber and stumps. Idk. Just wouldn't think hitting boscoyos at 20 to 30 mph would do a number on the fiberglass bottom. I could be way off my rocker but it just doesn't seem like it would last long. Am I wrong?
