So I talked with August at Steve Barnett's last week who told me he had an excellent show at the Orvis Game Fair event, and part of that was the liaison lady who had frequent contacts with August and with Bill at Robin Hollow asking how things were going and what Orvis could do improve for that show and next year's event. Apparently Orvis is actively looking to return to the days when it was THE place to see fine guns in the early Fall. He also mentioned that the Vintagers timing at Hopkins was just too close to the Orvis Game Fair to justify a second road trip from/back to MS. Lastly I learned that SBFG will be moving to a new location in (as I recall) Cleveland MS that's about 2 hours away from its current location in West Point. Move to be complete right after the first of the year.

My mother was from Cleveland, Mississippi and my brother was born there.

If the powers that be in the Vintagers organization are not on this site, they would be wise to change their ways. An apology from the Delany's posted on this site would have gone a long way to smooth out their poor performance at the 2023 Vintage Cup. They should be on all of the double gun forums to see how things are going. As was the case at Vintage Cups held at Millbrook NY and Easton, MD, sales of display space seems to be more important than shooting revenue or dinner sales. My vote is "Back to Millbrook" in conjunction with the Orvis Game Fair.
