It’s almost time – SHOT SHOW 2018
Tomorrow I’ll be jumping on a plane and heading to Las Vegas for another SHOT Show. SHOT stands for Shooting Hunting Outdoor Trade Show and it’s where connections are made, deals get signed and new products launch. I’ve been to a few. So many I can’t even remember, but my first 19 years ago in Atlanta.
I love SHOT Show. Face-to-face time with sponsors, handling guns and gear and getting to see so many shooting buddies and teammates make it the best way to kick off a new year and the shooting season.
SHOT Show is not open to the public but 50K+ people attend and if you’re one of them, I’d love to see you there. Bring copies of SHOOT and Toys, Tools, Guns & Rules to the show and I would be honored to sign them! Here’s my schedule:
Smith & Wesson (#13729) – I’ll be hanging out in the S&W booth every day from 10 – 11am and 2 – 3pm. Stop by for a poster, take a selfie and then stick around to see my teammate, the legendary Jerry Miculek. Rumor has it that if you shake his hand some of his trigger finger speed will rub off.
Safariland (#12762) – It probably isn’t legal how much fun we have at demo time in the Safariland booth. If you’re a one stop shop kinda person come by from 1 – 2pm on Tuesday through Thursday and 11am – 12pm on Friday for shooting tips from the amazing Doug Koenig, Rob Leatham, Kenda Lenseigne, Bobby McGee, Mike Voigt, Maggie Reese, Bill Rogers, Tommy Campbell, Scott Carnahan, and yours truly.
Girls With Guns Clothing (#3450) – This one is special. On Tuesday from 3:30 – 4:30pm, not only can you come hang out with me and check out some great pro-gun girl fashion and the awesome women of GWG, you can also get a free, signed copy of my new book Toys, Tools, Guns & Rules while supplies last! It’s the only booth where I will have copies of my book!
National Shooting Sports Month (#2414) – Last year the NSSF designated August as the official month of celebration for the shooting sports. Truth be told you can celebrate it every day, but August is extra special. Learn more about awesome programs and let’s chat about ways we can continue to share shooting!
Project Childsafe (#2426) – I’ll have a couple of sessions with Project Childsafe – the NSSF’s awesome program about safe storage. On Wednesday from 4 – 5pm I’ll be hanging out with super star women who actively promote firearm safety. You may have read about them on Women’s Outdoor News. On Thursday from 11:30 – 12:30 I’ll be back at Project Childsafe for another signing session. I’ll have some photos and if you missed out on getting Toys, Tools, Guns & Rules I’ll have bookplates you can take home to add to your own copies.
SHOT TV (#2410) – I’m kicking off Thursday morning at SHOT Show with a TV spot on SHOT TV! Come cheer me on and when I finish up join me on the walk to my gig at Smith & Wesson. We can have some fun talking guns, shooting sports, or whatever!
Women’s Meet & Mingle at the Bonnier Sportsman’s Lounge – If you think the women’s hangout at Project Childsafe is huge, the Women’s Meet & Mingle is that x1000! In its 3rd year and brought to you by Women’s Outdoor News and the Bonnier Corporation, the M&M is open to any woman attending the show. It’s a wonderful way to connect with the women of the shooting, hunting and outdoor industry!
Just typing that all out is making me tired, but I’m up for it! Here’s the full schedule. It’s even color coded 😉
