Ultimate Hunting Experience Expo
Posted: 5/1/12
By: Souwild
Invitations were sent all over the map for an exclusive two-day event held in Asheville, North Carolina this past weekend. Cessna, Beretta, Bad Boy Buggies and Land Rover teamed up to create the first ever “Ultimate Hunting Experience” for the outdoor lovers.
Thanks to Nichols Store, a new distributor in Rock Hill, South Carolina, Southern Wildlife Company had the opportunity to participate in this event and showcase its many upscale outdoor products. Once again, the Company’s merchandise amazed participants resulting in a very successful weekend.
Friday nights cocktail party and dinner was held at the Asheville Airport in a private hanger. This intimate event gave vendors the opportunity to interact and educate invitees on products advertised. On Saturday, all participants were asked to meet at The Biltmore Estate where they would have the unique privilege to test all products on display from the night before. Bad Boy Buggy and Land Rover gave demonstration rides on the estate’s off-road course while Cessna took those interested on test flights. Beretta also allowed clients to shoot clay pigeons with the numerous firearms loaded in their trailer.
Southern Wildlife Company would like to thank Cessna, Beretta, Bad Boy Buggies and Land Rover for making this such a pleasant event and also thank Nichols store for the invitation to participate in this show.
North Carolina has launched an innovative recycling program to collect oyster shells from individuals and businesses and place them back overboard to help turn the tide on declining oyster stocks.
How it works: A mound of oyster shells placed in brackish water with good tidal flow will quickly become colonized by a multitude of marine organisms, including oysters. This mound, also called and oyster reef, serves a number of purposes. First and foremost, it helps produce oysters. Secondly, it provides habitat for other beneficial organisms. Oysters serve an additional important purpose, they clean water by feeding on plankton and waterborne detritus. One oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water a day, so the larger and healthier our oyster population, the cleaner the water!
How you can help: Get involved as a collection volunteer, drop off your shells at a designated disposal site or encourage seafood markets and restaurants you frequent to join the recycling efforts.
We hope you will join us in the great recycling program! One individual may not be able to create a sizable reef, but by pooling our shell resources, researchers and scientists can construct large reefs in prime areas to enhance oyster productivity.
Our trailer came back much lighter from this past weekend at the Palmetto Sportsmen’s Classic in Columbia, South Carolina. People were once again impressed by all the custom products that we had on display. From the small and large Gathering Pots to the Oyster Table that seemed to sell itself, the company could not have been more pleased with the turnout for the show.
Not only did the company receive a few more clients for years to come, Southern Wildlife Company had a brief meeting with Nicholas Store, a company from Rock Hill, South Carolina which sells every product a man or woman of the outdoors could need or want. Their "Outdoor Paradise" is very impressive and we can't wait to work with them! Please visit them online at http://nicholsstore.com.
A very exciting moment for us was getting to meet Lee and Tiffany Lakosky from The Crush TV. Just a few days before the event Tiffany followed us on the popular networking website, Twitter! Check out The Crush TV at http://www.thecrush.tv.

Weather was certainly a factor but fortunately the rain held out until the last part of each day. Our booth was outside for this show but the tent held on through the high wind advisories and thunderstorm warnings.
Well, that is a wrap from SC for now. Thank you to all that came out to the show!

Next Stop...Columbia, SC!
Posted: 3/22/12

The trailer is loaded and ready for another great show weekend. We are heading across state lines into Columbia, South Carolina for the Palmetto Sportsman’s Classic from Friday, March 23 until Sunday, March 25. Like always, we will have numerous items on display which are all customizable. Once again, the company expects its Gathering Pot and Oyster Table to be the most popular amongst spectators.
It is estimated that this show will be another very large one bringing in about 25,000 people from various locations. “Southern Wildlife Company is excited to meet and interact with new people this coming weekend and hopefully get to see some old friends” President of Southern Wildlife Company, Ben Seegars states.
The Palmetto Sportsman’s Classic will have exhibits set up indoors and outdoors. This show will be unique for Southern Wildlife Company due to their booth being located outside for all to enjoy. “We’re hoping for good weather this weekend but if not, we’ll just have to improvise and keep our customers happy and dry.” Zach Blalock, the Sales Manager said.
Stop by the Palmetto Sportsman’s Classic at the South Carolina State Fair Grounds this weekend to check out Southern Wildlife Company’s Carolina made and inspired products.
Ideal weather along with numerous vendors yields the perfect recipe for another great weekend in Wilmington, North Carolina at the Cape Fear Wildlife Expo. About 10,000 people walked through the doors of Wilmington Convention Center to observe and purchase outdoor products such as boats, RVs, outdoor gear and tons of other merchandise.
Southern Wildlife Company had several products on display. Both the Oyster Table and Gathering Pot were once again the most popular as well as the essential gift pack for any oyster roasting weekend. The gift pack includes a large hand towel, protective gloves, custom Southern Wildlife Company oyster knife, koozie and a small sticker all wrapped into one convenient package.
Many spectators who also attended the Dixie Deer Classic in Raleigh, NC stopped by again to hello. Many picked up brochures for themselves as well as friends and family whom they thought would enjoy Southern Wildlife Company’s unique, upscale outdoor products.
Next week, Southern Wildlife Company will be traveling to the Palmetto Sportsman’s Classic being held at the South Carolina State Fairgrounds from Friday to Sunday. For more information contact Nancy Aycock at 919-739-7515 or visit http://psclassic.com
