Tickets

The hunting only, the intimate feel, everyone was so nice and welcoming. The logistics of it all was amazing and planned to cover every detail as far as I could tell.

I liked that it was hunting specific, there was a bunch of booths just trying to sell random stuff. It seemed well planned and executed.

Loved that it’s all hunting and great booths!

A nice change to be able to chat it up with all the big name vendors without a million people being shoulder to shoulder. The free parking was amazing as well.

All about hunting, hiking, outdoors, etc… I basically have stopped going to the sportsman’s show because it tries to be everything for everyone vs being focused.

I have to say that my favorite thing was that the whole show was absolutely the most amazing hunting expo experience that I’ve ever been to and it totally blew my mind the heavy hitters that were there they did an incredible job I will definitely attend again next year!!!

It was just about hunting!

High end manufacturer representation and ability to purchase. Even the ability to leave with merchandise in some instances.

Accessibility to Manufactures of hunting specific gear.

There was no fluff to it. No random items for sale and all was directly related to hunting.

I liked being able to hold/use products before purchasing. Especially products from DTC companies like Maven. Loved seeing passionate folks talk about their products. Also, being able to purchase things at great prices.

I really enjoyed that every both there was strictly hunting related. Not random unrelated booths that you find at some Sportsman Shows.

It was focused on hunting and didn’t have all of the crap at the Sportsman show that I’m not interested in. Great venue and free parking. Oh, and the concession stand food was amazing!

High end vendors with quality products!

Seeing and getting hands experience with experts to help explain the process or demonstrate and answer questions was great!

Loved the fact that everything was hunting. Was excited about the fact that at each booth the vendors were able to talk about there product. Overall the family enjoyed the NW Hunt expo definitely a 10!

I had a great experience! Argali was there and I was able to buy the tent that has been out of stock for months. And the guy from kifaru was able to help me fit my new ark frame properly!

I loved that it was a straight hunting expo. Also the easiness to move around once I was inside specially because I took my kids with me! Not as crowded as other expo shows and off course getting inside was a breeze with the free parking at the actual parking lot.

Loved everything about it! Hope to attend for years to come!

I really enjoyed getting a chance to check out some of the big brands that don't normally make it to the sportsman show.

I was able to try on gear prior to buying!

I enjoyed the fact that it was strictly hunting. I like the sportsman show, but that is heavily fishing, and I am primarily a hunter.

There were only booths related to hunting and outdoors. No nonsense!

This show had extremely high end gear to look at and try out!

It was nice being hunting focused with the best gear available.

Parking included with ticket price was a nice change when attending a show.

No flea market crap. Nobody trying to sell me gutters or insurance!

Easy to move from one company to the next. Very well organized!

There were several show highlights for me - being able to actually speak with the manufacturers and try out their products. So many things are online only these days. Weapons, being able to physically see and touch the rifles and bows. The high end optics companies being there and being able to try everything out.

I usually go to the big sportsman’s expo at the expo center. It has a lot of stuff to look at like big boats, safari hunts, canvas tents, and over landers but I don’t buy any of those things. I liked that this event was more curated. The Weatherby booth was pretty awesome!

Getting to see/put my hands on the hunting gear such as the tents, packs, etc and being able to ask questions and get immediate answers. Also, I loved having Born and Raised Crew there. It was very cool to meet them. Another aspect compared to the big sport shows was being able to calmly walk around and not elbowing people/not feeling rushed when I visited the booths. This was a very enjoyable feeling.

The facility was awesome. This show focused on all my hunting needs. I will attend again next year!!!

I like that vendors were hunting based unlike the sportsman's show where so many vendors are selling random trinkets and products that have nothing to do with outdoor activities such as hunting or fishing.

Getting to meet all the YouTube creators I’ve been following for years was my favorite! And all the vendors were great especially Minum Archery Simulator in the corner!

It was so great having the space and opportunity to talk with sales professionals about their products!

Everything was great about this show - Location, date, all about hunting!

I liked the vendors at the event. Good quality hunting gear.

It wasn’t over whelming, it was nice to be able to actually look at what each vendor had to offer.

All the good products and brands in one place!

All of the booths had great deals, but I scored huge savings at the SIG booth!

I've never seen as many of the leading hunting companies/brands at an event before this show.

High quality exhibitors and it wasn't too crowded to try out the gear.

I was able to get my hands on products from brands that aren't at larger retail stores.

Finally - a hunting ONLY event!

I enjoyed the high level gear vendors that attended the show unlike the Sportsman’s show.

I was able to get my hands on gear I've been eyeing, and talk to people that have a hand in product design and testing.

Event was low-keyed, relaxed and easy to navigate. It can be incredibly overwhelming with too many vendors, but the vendor list was thoughtful and specific. This made the experience easier to find products and interact with the vendors.

Competitive ticket pricing, especially with Free Parking!

It was ALL hunting specific. No extra BS (trinkets, etc) that other shows have. Some of the best brands in the business were there. Many that you don’t get an opportunity to see and feel their gear.

The volume of high quality booths is unmatched. Almost every booth was a big name in the industry that most hunters already own their products or keep on their radar.

You just don't see this quality of vendors at other shows.

I enjoyed the archery simulator, the Vortex booth, all vendors were great!

Great vendors, good deals, free parking, close to home, nice venue!

I really liked the size and quality vendors including the archery shoot booth!

All hunting stuff!

Every booth had great representation! Lots of folks wanting to help or answer questions!

I did not have to drive all the way to Portland!

NO fluff...No candles, not fufu...Just hunting stuff.

There were high end hunting exhibitors excited to support the new show!

I love that it was specifically focused on hunting only, and NOT a generic "outdoors" expo. This made it so that EVERY booth/vendor there was relevant for me vs. a mix of fishing boats and ATVs and all sorts of extra "fluff" vendors that don't really seem to be all that focused and core to HUNTING.

It wasn’t nearly as packed as the sportsman's show. I was able to talk with every vendor that I wanted to.
