guys that will buy from Vendors. Most all the guys in the East, Don't Buy. We need cash prizes, Not Bling. We need NEW BLOOD, not just the same old, same old guys. Just look at the pictures of the fellows that win the Bling, same guys every time. Put it in the Mid West and I bet most of the Eastern guys don't show up. I was shooting at Ben Avery in Arizona, didn't see one Eastern guy. Vendors smarten up very fast, people don't buy, they stop coming. Ohio would be a Nice
Central location, give a lot of other Parker members a chance to attend and they would have money to spend. It would be a Win- Win for every body.

Ohio is a great idea Harry. I hear Springfield is nice this time of year. Just don't bring your dog or pet goose.

The Vintage Cup, when first held at Hopkins Game Farm, was a total bust for vendors, end of story. If it weren't for the PGCA annual meeting held at the facility the same weekend, no one would have been there to purchase anything. In contrast with the Vintagers in 2023, the facility proprietors were not at fault. George Hopkins runs a great venue and the low turnout was a mystery to attendees. Hopefully, this year will be different, but all news points to a mediocre event. As I have stated before, I will attend this year's event, but only because I can sleep in my own bed before deciding whether I will be there for a second day.
