Someone tell me more about this. Heard it mentioned a lot over the years but never really figured out what it's all about or where it is. Appreciate it.

Not sure on the dates but I'll be there I know that much! I missed last year due to myself and my son getting the flu leaving the wife and daughter to take care of us but Lord willing we will be there this year.

To clarify- It's Helen, GA.

Custom made turkey calls - you won't find anything at the show that Walmart sells.

The best part is meeting the men and women who actually build the calls. Come join us and bring your money. :toothy12:  It's a great event.

Now I just have to talk my wife into visiting her folks in early January rather than at Thanksgiving. Somehow I don't think She will go for it.

I have been thinking about trying to attend. I usually don't go many places without my family. For you guys that have been, is this a place/event where a family (I have 3 young girls) can spend a day browsing calls, talking, meeting new folks? Or is it a more suited for grown men only?

Greenville- Spartanburg its only about 1 1/2 hour drive from the airport

Thanks for that information. I assume Atlanta might be cheaper, but Greenville-Spartenburg might be closer/more convenient?

Atlanta will be a lot more of a cluster, but you'd likely find a cheaper flight. It's about the same distance wise, but you may get caught in Atlanta traffic greatly slowing you down.

According to Google Flights, from Billings to Greenville leaving the 11th and coming back the 13th of January is as cheap as $561 and go up from there. To Atlanta the cheapest is $475.
