2007 Western Hunting Expo in Utah

October 24th, 2006 David King - King's Outdoor World

I would like to officially invite you all to the Western Hunting Expo. The Hunting Expo will be held January 17 – 20, 2007 in the Salt Palace Convention Center, downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. We here at King’s Outdoor World have come on as a major sponsorship to this convention. We think it will be a great opportunity to all who attend to have a chance at drawing a special limited entry tag. Here is some basic information about the Expo. If your questions are not all answered, simply follow the link at the bottom and you can find more information at the official expo web site. See you there.

The 2007 Expo has all the potential to be a HUGE success for sportsmen and wildlife for those - who love to hunt Mule Deer, Elk, Moose, Mountain Goats, Bighorn Sheep, Desert Bighorn Sheep, Stone Sheep, Dall Sheep, antelope, turkey, cougar and bear in the western United States, Canada and Mexico.

There is something for everyone:

- 200 of the worlds best elk, deer, sheep, moose, goat, bison, cougar, bear and antelope permits to draw
- 550 Exhibitors providing the worlds best hunting products and hunting guides and outfitters
- Over 100 of the worlds best Auction permits
- Free Seminars from world renowned sportsmen and entertainers
- Friday night concert with Jeff Foxworthy and Montgomery Gentry
- Provide 10 Awesome Hunts for Heros - dream hunts for our combat veterans
- Look at some of the best animals and taxidermy every taken
- See lots of fellow sportsmen

The Exhibit Hall entry fees are family friendly. They are $20 per day per person, or $25 for the 4 day pass. The fees are $25 for a family of four for the day.

In December, sportsmen can pick up a 2 for 1 (two people in for $20 a day) pass at Cabela’s and Sportsmen’s Warehouse stores.

But perhaps, most importantly, the Three Conservation Organizatoins, MDF, SFH, and FNAWS AND our Major sponsors - King’s Outdoor World, Cabela’s, Sportsmen’s Warehouse, Toyota Dealers of Utah, and others - have a clear track record of working to see increased herds of elk, mule deer, bighorn sheep, moose, goats and other species. The funds raised at this expo will go to invest in habitat, predator management, transplanting new herds, and other conservation activities to provide for phenomenal hunting opportunities in the future.

By uniting as sportsmen, like never before, it will give us the opportunity to address future issues like fencing highways, providing wildlife under or over passes, returning management of grizzly and wolves to the states, and the continued restoration of mule deer and elk habitat on the western united states public lands.

A lot of the 200 premium permits being offered at the Expo, are the direct investment of tens of millions of dollars in habitat, predator control, transplants and management by the sponsor organizations. Frankly speaking, without these groups, there would be a lot less hunting, and a lot less quality than is found today.

Become part of the team to keep hunting great for future generations. For further info look at www.huntexpo.com
