then rent a car. how cold is there to campout or get a hotel, I'm wondering how much this would
cost me. Have to add it all up $$$ and see what the weather looks like if I drive, and best place
to say in town. Flying cost around $340.00 so far.

the old timer at the club said to me, you can buy a very nice recurve bow for the price of
going to Kalamazoo and there right, now that makes sense to me. :o

Then added a new bow to the inventory that I ordered last spring at the Compton's Big Game Classic....which is an absolute stunner.
Stayed Saturday night at the hotel and hung out with a big crew until the wee hours of the morning.
With the camaraderie every year, the trip to the expo is always a net positive.
