Pheasant Fest
 

Sioux Falls SoDak , 30,000 people expected. We are here in 1723-1725 North Bldg with 35 guns from A to V, external and internal hammers.

A few photos. The fellow with the tan western hat won the sporting clays championship of Nebraska 2017 with a Trojan. PGCA member. The gal with the blue hair is a SoDak farmer friend on whose land we hunt pheasants each fall. She has a quite the week pulling calves and keeping a gun handy to shoot coyotes.

A great dinner last night with the bunch. Jeff and Bernadette Christie, Jeff and Coleen Kappes, Ed and Liz Morgan, Tom Wooden, Jeff Kuss , Dick Dow, and me .

Thanks for the update & photos. Looks like a great time and presentation of Parker guns. I think the LC Smith group is also there.

Bruce and all, Thanks for representing our PGCA at Pheasant Fest again. You all have really carried the ball a long time promoting our favorite shotgun and the PGCA. Ed has sold many, many tickets there and for lots of people it may be the first Parker they have ever seen.

Very well said Mike!

Another reason to own Parkers. You become a chick magnet.

Many thanks to the nice men taking care of the display for three days. Not as easy as it looks. My daughter Morgan and I had volunteered to work the Drahthaar booth on Saturday 9 to 1, but got to walk around in the afternoon and check out the Parker booth. Where in the Midwest could a fella go to see so many really nice Parkers all in one place and be able to tap into that much knowledge and experience ?? Honestly ?? You could spend a lifetime walking Midwest gun shows and never get close ! The fellas were all really nice and they have forgotten more than I will probably ever know. What a treat ! Thanks again for helping to generate interest, Mark

Tom Wooden flew in from Houston TX, Jeff Kuss from Valparaiso IN, Dick Dow from Fullerton CA. From shorter distances , Ed Morgan drove from Galena, IL. I hauled much of the exhibit stuff up from Kansas City. From Ada MN came Pete Kappes and Jeff Christie came from Lake Okoboji Iowa.

A lot of people go the distance to get together with friends and help the PGCA.

And we owe you a hearty Thank You All for your hard work and dedication!

Nice event and to be politically correct in this victimized snow flake world we live in, those are great pics of the guns and booze. All you need is cigar vendor in those pics and you wold have drawn attention of ATF.

Thanks for posting those pics. BTW next time you guys should dress in period hunting clothing for era those guns were made. Just kidding. Great stuff and looks like you had fun and met some great people.
