Yeah, it’s remarkable how many shoots disregard the calendar.
For instance, shoots on holiday weekends. Or opening weekend of grouse season.
They obviously only want pure shooters. Or at least are only thinking of themselves in a vacuum.
That might be good for the club, but it sure doesn’t do much for booth traffic.
Anybody who is honest about the whole thing, can easily figure out how tough the numbers are for a vendor to show up at a small shoot.
Myself, I would never tote 2 or 3 tons of Shotgun shells to a shoot in the hopes of selling them one box at a time on the come.
I won’t even try to imagine 50 shotguns across international boundaries. What a hassle.
