Follow Aron, Robby, and Ryan along at the SHOT show in Vegas this week.

Made it to Sin City- exhausted. The kids are in awe at the lights and big buildings. A big change from lowly little Iona, Idaho.

Robby there is a lot of cool things here for kids, not just gambling and drinking. The shark reef is pretty cool, the white tigers at Mirage for free, the dolphin habitat, and for dinner there is Serendipity which is in front of Caesars Palace. They serve desert before your entree, they will love that! Just a little info

From my front window looking out.

Met Aron this morning (acutally first time I've ever met him in person- surprisingly he's only 5'3" ) and came up with plan for the day. He was crazy busy yesterday and didn't get everywhere he wanted, so I'm playing clean up today. I'll try and respond to some of the requests on here and also show you what I'm seeing.

 

[Slim Jim]

I would like to know if Sitka is coming out with a merino wool tee shirt or any other new things from them

I am going to find a way to go next year, too much good stuff not to.

 

[robby denning]

Just got some good video with Kenton from First Lite, I you're still not sure about the whole Merino thing, stay tuned, he goes into the why and features some of his new outerlayers, like the Puffy.

I would like to see the new spotters that Zen Ray has if they have a booth? The Binos have been my best bang for the buck ..so far! I cannot affored the finer glass but for the dollar and warranty I have with my binos , I would like to see if there is a spotting scope that they sell that is as good of a deal! Warranty matters so include that! Bob.

bobhunts, I can't find the Zen Ray listed in the directory. Anyone know if they are here? Be glad to check them out if I can find them.

 

[robby denning]

I don't know if they will be there but the new Remedy 7 line of packs from Blacks Creek look interesting. If someone can get there hands on their new Grip frame and look it over that would great. I have also been looking at their new Antidote pack.

I can't find Black's Creek listed in the floor directory- anyone know if they are here or or they under a another (parent) company name?

 

[robby denning]

As I collect info on specific gear, I'll post it on the forum specific to that gear if we have one. Here's a link to a conversation I had with Kenton from First Lite on the benefits of Merino wool that is posted in the clothing forum:

Blacks creek is not at SHOT, but I'm meeting them at the Denver ISE on Friday.

Thanks guys for looking into Blacks Creek. I see that they will be at the Sheep Show here in Reno at the end of the month, I will see them then.

We are at the airport in anchorage now, waiting to fly to Seattle and eventually Vegas. Poor Luke has been up for 24 hours having worked nights for the last two weeks. Trying to cram some shut eye in the terminal before take off..

 

[Ryan Avery]

Tell him to man up. We are getting on the plane in spokane.

See you this evening if you can stay up that late

This thread cracks me up. It's like following a live hunt except for a convention!

I still wish I could be there to meet all of you!

[squeekieslayer]

aaron, did you try out the victory HT's? I have had my eye on those babies ever since they started telling people "one more month," so about last March.

I may or may not get HUGE discounts on Zeiss through my work but no where around here has them to try out. I feel like you looking at them is as good as me looking at them.
