Title: Nashville
Post by: C W on February 21, 2013, 11:42:46 PM

Here's the reason we went to Nashville this year, our little guy. I did enter a few calls and even won a category but the biggest thrill was to see him compete in the

Poults Division of the National Calling Chanpionships. It was his first trip to this contest and we both learned a lot. We had the privilege of running into Pat Strawser

on Friday night and he took the time to come give us a few tips while he listened to Connor run through his calls. He ended up taking 5th and is already talking

about calling again next year!

Thanks everyone!!

We normally take a few days off of practicing after a contest but he's been hard at all week. The Mid Iowa calling contest is next weekend at the Deer Classic and I think he's determined to redeem himself there.

Congrats to Connor,  I have been at some contest and he is a great caller.  I heard a rumor Chris that you where going to start in a contest?  any truth to it.  Scoot

I'm neither going to confirm nor deny that rumor......... funny how fast things spread. *fall*

I'm still looking for that perfect balance of horse tranquilizers and Ritalin to keep my nerves in check.
