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.
The “Tracker” Derby City’s newest Trough call
Derby City will be introducing its new trough call at the NWTF Convention in Nashville. It is called the Tracker. This is a very easy Turkey Call to use if you are a new turkey hunter. It has great rasp and is a very good call when you need to call softly to bring that big gobbler into gun range. This call can also be personalized and comes with a standard striker. However, we highly recommend upgrading to our signature Old Growth Striker.
