Title: How far will you be traveling to the Trad Expo
Post by: Plaigh on January 17, 2012, 09:34:00 PM
With the 17th Annual Traditional Bowhunters Expo in Kalamazoo MI just around the corner, I'm curious as to how far people are going to be traveling to attend.

I'll be driving a whopping 2 hours...

Something like 15 and a half hours one way as long as the weather cooperates.

Deer season is over and it will be my first time going to Kzoo. Besides that, my wife is splitting the driving time with me.

I thought long and hard about it. I Mapquested it and it was a little over 11 hrs.

I think I'll save My money for Waterloo it's only a little over 4. I know it would be worth the trip but I'm planning a trip to OJAM also.

Maybe next year.

Guy's n Gals...please remember to post these type of topics in the Trad Events forum.  Once the off season starts for lots of states that don't have a lot of other hunting seasons or year round season for some animals, we had to create years ago a forum for all the shoots.

Reason being is that with so many shoots and so many starting topics, the 'normal' PowWow gets over taken by 'shoot n gathering' threads and the 'normal' post get lost in the shuffle.

Thanks for your understanding.....   :campfire:
