Derby City Banner
Derby City has a new treasure. We took our banner to Nashville and had it signed by many great people. Our friends from Osage Roost, great call makers and a few famous hunting celebrities signed this banner. Thanks to everybody for signing the banner. We will hang it proudly in our shop as a reminder of what a great time Derby City Calls had at the 2010 NWTF Convention.
Black Gold goes to NWTF
Derby City would like to thank John Allen for supporting us at the NWTF Convention. Black Gold was the only dog food supplier at the show and was well received by the people. Many people came by the booth to say they feed Black Gold to their pets. For everyone who loves Black Gold, go to their website and click on “find a dealer”. Enter your area code or zip code, the range of miles you are willing to drive, and that should bring up dealers in your area . Do yourself and your pet a favor, pick up a bag of Black Gold. Your pet will love it. For more information on Black Gold, click on the link on Derby City’s home page. Thanks again for your support.
Starstruck Stoner
There were many hunting celebrities at the NWTF Convention this year, just ask Brent. He is still on cloud nine after meeting Tiffany Lakosky. We had a hard time getting Brent back to our booth after meeting her. Brent made it a point to meet most of the big name hunting celebrities, Lee & Tiffany Lakosky, David Blanton, Harold Knight, and David Hale. The Hunter’s Specialties and Primos Pro Staffers were all very approachable and easy to talk with. The Bone Collector crew (Michael Waddell, T-Bone, and Nick Mundt) were crowd pleasers as well. The convention was a great way to meet a lot of people, not just hunting celebs. We met all kinds of wonderful people (great callmakers, regular everyday hunters, business people, NWTF staff, etc…) and made some great cotacts. The NWTF Convention was a great experience and we look forward to attending it for years to come.
I am still trying to figure out why Brent did not put his arm around Lee as well. Did he even know Lee was in the picture? Brent had better watch out, Lee looks to me like he stays in pretty good shape. Just look at the pictures.
The Future of Hunting
Many youngsters visited Derby City’s booth at the NWTF Convention. These young kids made for some of the most memorable moments at the convention. We loved to have them come by and play with our calls. Some played them like a pro and others have some practice ahead of them. The good things is that they all had a good time and all have an interest in hunting. We would like to say thank you to all the parents for instilling a desire to hunt in their children. The future of hunting lies in their hands, that is why we encouraged every kid who came by our booth to scratch on our calls. The picture of the little girl in this blog speaks for itself.
Derby City Shines at NWTF Convention
We were pleasantly surprised at the response our calls received at the NWTF Convention this year. Derby City placed 4th with our Aluminum Magnum in category 6. The Tracker placed 3rd in the trough call division. For a young company, we are extremely proud of these accomplishments. However, it was not the medals that made us the most proud (although that helped a lot), it was all the kind and positive comments that we received from everyone at the booth. Derby City would like to thank everyone who came to our booth. We enjoyed talking, interacting, and making connections with everyone. To everyone who purchased one of our calls, we hope they put many birds in your vest for years to come. To everyone who just stopped by to look or chat, we enjoyed the opportunity to talk a little turkey with you. We think the future looks bright at Derby City Calls. Derby City…….Good Call.
