You know how this works. Reply to the thread and your in the game. Winner takes a pick two of diaphragms.
I'll do the normal serial number from a random bill to determine the winner. Let's do the first and sixth numeric didget in reverse order for the winning number.
I'll start with.
Knights turkey vest. And both Russell Sr and Jr were a class act.
I'm in! And thank you!

In! Well.... I didnt get to go but I looked at many many photos/videos.
I will say James Harrison in the hooting competition (not surprised)
And Hallorans new wenge slate call, that I have on order. He just hit me up on facebook and said he would work on filling that order when he got home this week. Exciting.
Uh guys you need to be a little more involved and tell what you saw that impressed you. Not just " I'm in" these giveaways are about involvement.
All in!!!
I'm in! And thanks!
Didn't get to go, but would like to try your calls.
Didn't see much that actually impressed me. Saw some stuff like the turkey fan that I wish they would ban from the sport, though.
Didn't get to go, heard it was crowded and Halloran's new slate kills...
Didn't get to go but would like to try your calls..
What impressed me enough to buy was a David Halloran laminate slate and Gooserbat Bacon! :turkey2:
Im in. The new Halloran impressed me the most.
I really like the Gooserbat Bacon I got. Was also impressed by the Halloran booth. Kind o saddened by some of the dumb crap out there like the turkey fan and the hecs suit.

i will say olin Humphries custom calls. strange i have been buying and selling and hunting with custom calls a very long time. cannot believe he was a hidden gem of a turkey call maker not very well known. i thought his call are nice looking and sound as good as many well known makers. just my opinion of course.

people just want to kill a bird so bad they will do anything. i hate it also. turkey hunting to me is a sport. if I never kill another I would be ok but if I never could work or hear one gobble again , well that would be devastating for me.
I like the new ICE I got from you. But, I went just to find a snakewood striker and ended up with a beauty from Derrick at Obsession Calls.
Im in. I too was impressed with the halloran slate. Would also like to get one of your new pots one day.
Didn't get to go......
im in,the thing i guess i was most impressed with is how it seems that things are starting over again in the camo department,and how everyone seems to be going oldschool back to the beginning of camo,they had all the vest and clothes draped in old camo like the 80's,history repeats itself.
Well, like several others, I didn't get to go. Having said that, would still like to get in on the action if possible. If it helps at all, I did get to go to the outdoor show in PA couple weeks ago. Got to see avians new laying hen decoy. She would look stellar in front of a strutter I believe.
I really liked the Gooserbat Dollar Bill Serial Number Magic Decoder Ring.
I don't have the decoder ring, but I really like that I got to see the dollar bill that Sam will use and I just happened to get into the right spot here!
Hallorans new slate

Your aluminum calls sounded great and the deception decoys
The new alps kickstand vest was very impressive
I wasn't there, but count me in. New products I have my eye on are the 20 ga jebs non ported and hallorans wenge walnut slate
Hallorans box calls. I had watched a lot of his videos, but it was nice to get my hands on one to try for myself.
I just like seeing new gear and calls it never gets boring. But I liked the Halloran calls also the bacon
I'm in
Umm impressed by... Some Of the kids calling abilities (made me wanna go home and practice)
And
Well there seemed to be a bunch of good looking girls walking around

Didn't get to go this year....but what impressed me most wasn't a single item...but the shear volume of items. From the killers (Lonzo's pot calls) to the kookie...to many of them to mention.
Hallorans new slate, which now has a home with me. This was also my first convention and was really impressed with how friendly everyone was and had a great time talking to all the vendors.

Unfortunately the closest I came was watching the calling on YouTube. I dont know why I like the owl competitions so much but James is definitely impressive with that hooter.
I had a great time. What impressed me most was Hallorans Purple Heart and Cedar box. The hotel and convention also amazed and impressed me. That is one impressive huge place.
The family adventure village was the best thing for me. My kids loved it and what better way to get kids involved in the outdoors. Got to see some friends I only get to see once a year.
I'll play! The two things that impressed me the most were, #1 my memorial turkey mount that Chip Hayes mounted for me that won Best of Show! and #2 was the matched set of trumpet and tube call made for me by Del Crow (Savduck) and Billy McAlister of Natural Addictions Calls!! I had an awesome time and enjoyed meeting a few of you guys from here that I've never met before! Sam, Clark, and Mickey.
I was most impressed with some of the decorative calls in the call competition/silent auction! :drool: They were so beautiful and many of them even sounded as good as they sounded. Also as many others have said, Hallorans new slate. I only picked up the Twisted Sister because i had my eye set on it since before i got there but as soon as they are online i believe i will be placing an order for one!
i was most impressed by the overall good general attitude everybody had . This was my 6 year old step sons first time at the convention so my main goal was to make sure he had a good time. I was very impressed how every vendor we stopped at made it a point to talk to him and give him a few words of encouragement. He was on cloud 9 by the time we left. He is eat up with turkey fever now, and his Mama is already sick of the calls he bought with his allowance he saved up for the show!
As far as products, I was very impressed with the alps outdoors kickstand vest. I was so impressed I bought 2! One for me and one for my dad. I made myself a promise not to buy any calls( went a little crazy last year and didn't use half of what I bought). But I did run several and seen some beautiful calls that I would of loved to added to my collection.
My buddy and I were talking about how much the convention had grown in the past 5 years since we started attending. In my opinion that's the most impressing thing.
The General good nature of the folks that attend. All the call makers I met were awesome to visit with.....including you. We had a fantastic time at the show.
Didn't go buy i follow a lot of people that did. The deception decoys impressed me.
Didn't get to go but I'm down for a drawing!
I'm in. Turkey fan.com
I'm in. Thank you.
Did not go, but planning on it next year.
Did not attend, but was disappointed with the lack of conservation minded vendors. You would think every other booth would be talking about the dramatic loss of birds that keeps their check books loaded. Reminds me more like a wild ostrich convention, burry head in sand and pretend everything is just fine. Maybe I missed that booth?

You won't see that at the convention. The NWTF just prefers to take credit for what was once a robust resource that is now alarmingly waning.

If only I didn't live so far away. I'm sure I would have gone. And I'm sure something would have impressed me. :z-guntootsmiley:

#5 who is Vaturkeyhntr
Beyond excited!!! Been wanting to try these calls for a long time. Again thanks for doing the random drawing!!
Ah congrats !!
Feel free to send me one while your shipping to VA. I been looking to try a couple of your calls myself. Will place a order in the next couple days.
I liked the Gooserbat bacon my buddy brought me back from the convention. I didn't get to go this year, had to work. Had the call for about 3 hours before my dog ate it (see my other post)
Hallorans slate call and alps new nwtf vest. Got a nice barronet blind as well
