David, that's been an issue for quite a few years. The UP, Duluth/Puglisi, Hausman's, the South Carolina, etc side by side shoots did not exist until people saw a need for them. To be fair to Bill Kuempfer, his Deep River event has become so popular that its overcrowded if a person wants to shoot. Still, it has the best vendor attendence outside Vintagers and the PGCA makes it one of its two recurrent official annual events. I suppose it depends what interests a person the most. I don't like buying guns in a crowd and I'm generally out of the gun market anyway, don't know what more I would want, and I like to shoot. I'm not a good enough shooter to make the Parker team, and its a long way to come.....but maybe next year I can make it back to see old friends. Just my view.
