Buckmasters in Greensboro This Weekend
I don’t believe I’ll make it over to the show this year but it is usually a decent show. I’m not much of a Buckmasters fan but the show has a lot of good venders so it’s worth checking out if you’re in the area. I would just caution you against joining up because they are in my opinion little more then a telemarketing organization selling everything from grunt calls to vacuum cleaners.
NC Wildlife will have a display at the show;
Wildlife Resources Commission at Buckmasters Expo
GREENSBORO, N.C. (July 19, 2007) – The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission will have a presence at the annual Buckmasters Expo at the Greensboro Coliseum on July 27-29. Among the opportunities offered:
Listen and Learn
Evin Stanford, the Commission’s deer biologist, will be on hand to answer questions and discuss the state’s deer population and the outlook for this year’s hunting season.
Buy a License
The Commission’s Customer Services staff will sell hunting, inland/coastal fishing and combination licenses. To purchase a lifetime license for infants under 1-year-old and youth ages 1-11, you must provide a photocopy of the birth certificate. To see types of licenses available, go online to www.ncwildlife.org.
