Got the invite in the mail this morning. Hard to say which would have cheaper firearms, don't they usually have gun draws at those kinda things? Very exciting anyways.

What people are getting the special VIP invite? Is it based on who you know, on past business, or something else? Just wondering.

You get them because you have ordered from Cabelas in the past.

should have received one
Not sure how far back they would go on Canadian mail order customers but used to order all my waterfowl and sheep equipment from them. Maybe the computer records don't go back over 5 years?
Would have been a good excuse to see Huntfest

I received a "few" of them based on being on the committee for the Alberta Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation. I too will not be able to use them as the wife and I are not heading up until early on Friday to Huntfest (and of course Cabela's!!) as we are helping out at the Alberta Fish and Game Association booth. If your at Huntfest, stop by and say hi as we are inside the main doors and immediately to the left in the first booth.

VIP day
I got mine, not sure it is based on past mail orders otherwise I should have gotten at least 20 of them! I didn't get mine for ordering via mail, but through a friend in the outfitting business.

I've got a couple of tickets, and a buddy of mine also has a couple....we have a 3rd party going with us, potentially a 4th. If our 4th jams out, I will happily give one of mine to Ken....! I'll let you know by the 1st what's going on. TC
