Evidently more hookups for vendors were installed right behind the clubhouse and near the existing vendor row location. Here is the list Brad Barnett sent me today – Keith Heeg Stockworks – Shamrock Leathers & Storm – Jim Poublon Embroidery – Bob Schultz Target Shotguns – Michael Gooch Indiana Gunworks – Jerry Bryant Earplugs – Sean Powers Promatic – Patti Rively Shooting Apparel and accessories.
If you need shotgun shells the Homegrounds will be selling them and had them shipped into the club. Jimmy Wilson said they would be selling Clever, Gun Clubs, STS and of course AA’s. No mention of Federal shells being sold.
It is very exciting to know that the NC Homegrounds is hosting the Dixie Grand. JC and I would travel to Florida in January for the Dixie and it was great to escape the cold in NC for a little Florida sunshine. The only problem was that there was a chance it would be cold in Florida also. If you don’t travel to the Grand in August or the Southern Grand in March this is good chance to see some of the All-Americans that travel the country chasing those all-american points.
Here are a few pictures for the Dixie in 2008…
