Dean is correct; the Vintage Cup was held at Pintail Point from 2007 to 2011 (5 years). It moved to Addieville in RI in 2012.

Pintail Point was for 4 years ..... 2007-2010. Great shooting, collector, and exhibitor participation. Some of the best years for our annual meetings and banquet attendance. All just seemed to come together during that time period.

The Annual Meeting was in Louisville, KY in 2011 and Georgetown, SC
in 2012. That meeting was cut short due to Tropical Storm Sandy.

As I'd posted earlier, the Vintage Cup was at Pintail Point for 5 years to include 2011. Here's a link to a thread on the Fox site that references the 2011 VC at Pintail.

As others have written it would be good to see a firm list of vendors and fairly quickly at that.
I met with Steve last night and no he will not be at the Vinagers but I think he said he would be at Orvis Game Fair.

I was told, by one of the major vendors, that the dust was so bad last year he had to buy an air compressor to blow off his guns. This was a primary complaint.

Come what may - We will still hold the PGCA Annual Meeting and Banquet at Hopkins Game Farm and the Fox/Parker Challenge will still be held on their shooting grounds as will all other scheduled shooting events.

Kathy and I will certainly be there.

I was told on 8/20 that a vendor list was being put on the Vintagers website. I just looked and no list to be found.

As for dust in the tents and on the guns, I recommended after the first time at Hopkins, and again last summer, that they move the exhibitors tents onto the grass. There's nothing like seeing a table of 50,000 dollar guns with dust so thick you could write your name on them. Plus the tents would be cooler. I wasted my time.

I checked and don't see any list of vendors.
