Dream come true!
 

I was very grateful to be invited to the ATA (Archery Trade Association) trade show today. It is a trade show where all the industries best of the best show off their new products to each other and vendors and so on. When I approached the Copper John booth, there it was, an 8' x15' backdrop of a photo I took for them of Troy Gentry at full draw! It was surreal seeing it!

I got to meet many of my hunting heros...Lee and Tiffany Lakosky, Nick Mundt, Travis T-Bone Turner, Michael Waddell, David Blanton, Eva Shockey, and many more!

Many of you may not know these names, but in the hunting industry, they are huge and it was a pleasure to shake their hands! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/08/ezu8a3e7.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/08/ehejunum.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/08/mujatenu.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/08/satagyqe.jpg

Big congrats Mike! I don't hunt anymore.....and miss it.....but I recognize most of those names.

Awesome Mike. Must have been a great feeling, seeing your photo there. And getting to meet the stars of today's hunting shows.

That's pretty cool Mike. Congrats.

Congratulations Mike. I've been hearing about the new Copper John sight, I haven't seen any photos of it though. I'll probably stick with the Spot Hogg for now as I have no complaints, I do know the Copper John is supposed to easily adjustable.

I wish I could have went to the ATA, I've seen some of the guys from Indiana that I went to grade school with there. I wished I hadn't have gotten out of the outdoor scene.

Nice going - now you can raise your photog rate!

Nice shot. Congrats!

Good job! That picture is very nice. Congrats!
