coueswt Report post Posted January 13, 2008 Anyone going to the SCI show in Reno or the Western Hunting & Conservation Expo in Salt Lake City? I'm heading to Expo in SLC again this year. I love looking over all of the 400+ inch Elk that will be there. There is a outfitter that will be there that kills some huge Coues down in Mexico and will probably have some monsters there to show.

I love looking over all of the 400+ inch Elk that will be there. There is a outfitter that will be there that kills some huge Coues down in Mexico and will probably have some monsters there to show. I just got back from Dallas Safari Club show today (Sunday 13 January) and will be in Reno for the Weatherby Award banquet and the SCI show. It will be the 19th year I have moderated SCI's "Your First African Safari" seminar. If you are interested in hunting in Africa, drop in and say hello. It's on Thursday 24 January from 10 AM to noon in rooms A1-2 at the Reno/Tahoe Convention Center. We have 275-300 people show up every year, and should see more this year because of better publicity so you'll need to show up early to get a seat. Panelists include hunting writer Craig Boddington talking about African game and guns & ammo for Africa, Ludo Wurfbain (Safari Press) about books to read before going to Africa, booking agent Beverly Wunderlich, outfitter/PH Johan Calitz talking about what to expect from your PH and what he expects from you, and Carol Rutkowski of Coppersmith Inc. talking about shipping your trophies home. These people are THE experts in their fields. This year we'll also will have someone who will tell how South Africa's new gun law affects travel through Jo'burg or Cape Town with firearms and ammunition to anywhere in southern Africa. There's a question and answer period after each presentation. It's SCI's most popular and longest-running seminar. Bill Quimby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
