I'm putting together an Archery Collectors Show hosted by Cabelas and sponsored by the ABCC.
This is to be held at the Cabelas store in Sidney, Nebraska July 9 to 11-2010.
I have several collectors attending with their memorabilia displays along with broadhead displays lined up but more are welcome.
Some highlights:
Howard Hill Display
Chet Stevenson Display
Lost Canyon Arrows Display
Pinecrest Display
bows, pictures, etc.
There is no fee and this is open to the public. This is a great opportunity for the collectors to meet and trade, buy, or sell their goodies. A wonderful chance to open the history of archery to the interested public.
Please go to:
www.cabelas.com (http://www.cabelas.com) and then click on "Retail Stores" then click on the Sidney store. There you will find out about the amenities offered. There is RV and tent camp sites, motels and restaurants with-in walking distance. RV sites should be reserved well in advance by calling the number on the web site. There is also an airport in Sidney.
I will answer all questions, just email or PM me. I can then provide a phone number if you wish to talk.

Ron- Glad it's back on track, Dicko0p
I would go to a show like that.
I think this is a great idea to promote collecting and for sure a very tutorial show.

I have a mint Aberdeen by Stillwater Archery. It is not vintage but pretty cool. It was made by Mr. Gene McGlashen of Harrison Michigan.
If you like it, I would ship it to you for the display. However, I would want it back.
The first picture is an advertisement for Aberdeen's; the other pictures are of my actual bow. My bow has horn overlay grip, tips, and limb bolt knobs.
If you don't like it, don't worry, you won't hurt my feelings.

I'm really sorry about not answering you sooner. I've been off chasing turkeys in two states.
That is a great offer you made, however I wouldn't be comfortable having to handle it as a loaner along with all the other stuff I have to take up there for the show.
Thanks
Ron
Looking forward to this show! Im only about an hour and a half away from sidney, perfect!

Hi,Friend PM your # I have lost IT.joey
Hello
I'm looking forward and plan on attending this event. I have 4 nice old Bear Recurves I plan on bringing along for sale or trade. Should be a lot of fun. Thanks for putting this together.
Just to clarify........... this event is not just for the collectors. They are coming there to meet with each other. But this is open to the public so the history of archery and bowhunting can be made available. This is promotion of archery history for us and as a draw for Cabelas.
Hey Ron I'm not going to be able to make it... but pick me up one of everything if you would ! ;)
Hey Shep ...that makes it a lot easier for me. I was going to get two of everything!
Back to top so everybody can see it and then attend!
The date is getting close!
