This years show promises to be the best and biggest ever with over 1,948 exhibitors , in 715,000 square feet of space. Folks and media from all 50 states and 75 countries will be in attendance.

Among the people who will be enjoying the opening day, including a State of the Industry Dinner-Concert Gala with Randy Travis, will be our very own Stacy. She will be wandering around introducing herself and CoTradeCo, as well as learning what you all are up to.

WOW! If I had to choose one word to describe Show Show, WOW would be it!
This was my first convention in Las Vegas, and it did not disappoint! Just like Vegas I would have to say that Shot Show is bigger than life, with lots of Glits and Glam! The displays were incredible, just like you would expect to see in Vegas!

The number of people that turned out on Saturday was incredible! Sunday was lighter (I’m sure it had nothing to do with the Super Bowl or people being hung over from the Saturday night parties.)

The representatives in the booths were knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. A few special hellos and thanks I would like to send out are to Prois Hunting Apparel, www.proishunting.com they do Serious Huntwear for real women. Thanks for taking the time to talk and show me your product. I hope you enjoyed the concert on Saturday night! Also Arizona Jacks for the sampling of some of the best Beef Jerky I have had, thanks for knowing that I needed a break! Aimshot, www.aimshot.com for giving me a chance to try out some of your Night Vision Products and explaining them to me. I could continue on forever but I will save all of you the additional reading. Needless to say I think the show was great and talking to a number of the vendors on the Monorail on Saturday night most had a tremendous amount of success and were themselves very pleased with the show.

Just a reminder to each of you click on the link in the posting above to take advantage of our 10% off Shot Show special, all you need is your badge number to take advantage. Also please sign up for your spot and share your stories of Shot Show, I know we have a lot of people that would be very interested in hearing about them. Not all of what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

About posting to community blogs

Post anything. Talk about work, life, or play. Get and give advice and tips. This is a trading post so feel free to promote yourself, projects, or your business (just don't spam!).

You need a SPOT to post new discussions on the community blog and comment on other people's posts.

Some folks call it a blog, a forum, or questions and answers. Trader Dan is old fashioned and thinks of it as folks talking and having a good time.

The only real rules are NO SPAM, don't be rude, and indicate if your post is NSFW. These things tend to peeve Trader Dan no end. Promoting yourself is okay if it is meaningful to the community, but limit yourself or you will be deleted. Controversy is okay, but hate, flaming, and jerks are not.
