Big Game Treestands Continues Partnership With Whitetails Unlimited

Whitetails Unlimited

Ohio --(Ammoland.com)- Whitetails Unlimited and Big Game Treestands will continue their partnership in conservation through the 2011 fiscal year, said WTU Executive Director Pete Gerl.

“Big Game Treestands has renewed their sponsorship for the next 12 months, and we’re thrilled to continue our relationship with this outstanding company. These guys are hunters and understand what hunters need, and work hard to develop innovative, high-quality gear at great prices. We’re happy to have them continue as a sponsor, and we look forward to building a strong relationship with them.”

Big Game Treestands is a leading manufacturer of tree stands and associated hunting and outdoor equipment, such as ladder stands, game carts, shooting benches, box blinds, feeders, and other gear for the hunter.

“Big Game Treestands is a great company to work with. They started out supporting WTU banquets in Missouri, and they’re now in their second year as a WTU national sponsor,” said WTU Field Director Dan Vogt. “Having a quality company like Big Game Treestands as a national sponsor helps tremendously in our nationwide conservation efforts.”

“We’ve featured items from the Big Game Treestands line at select WTU events last year, and they were a big hit,” said Dave Hawkey, WTU’s vice president of field operations. “They were very popular items with our members, because of the obvious quality and innovation that Big Game puts into their entire line of outdoor gear. In addition to their product at select events, they’ve sponsored the back cover of our event folders, which will keep their marketing message in front of our audience all year long.”
“Big Game Treestands joins a long list of great companies that help us advance the mission of Whitetails Unlimited,” Gerl said.

Whitetails Unlimited to Hold First Ever Mirror Events in Bucks County

Pennsylvania--(Ammoland.com)-So what if you scheduled a conservation fundraising event, and everyone came?

That is the problem facing Whitetails Unlimited Field Director Dennis Malloy, because his Bucks County (Pennsylvania) Chapter Hunters Night Out sold out in two days, and there were hundreds of requests for additional tickets.

So Malloy, along with his local chapter volunteers, decided to double their workload and schedule a second, identical event to accommodate the demand.

“This is going to be a unique situation, and I’ve never seen people work as hard as they have to pull this off,” said Malloy. “The committee didn’t want to shut anyone out, and everyone has pitched in to have two identical events in 24 hours. It’s amazing, and a little humbling, to be a part of this.”

The original event is scheduled for Saturday, June 4, at the New Hope Eagle Fire Company in New Hope, Pennsylvania. The additional event will be held in the same place 24 hours earlier, on Friday, June 3.

“We are going to have an identical event both nights,” said Malloy. “The same place, the same food, the same guns and prizes, and we even have T-Bone both nights. We want to make sure no one misses anything, and by adding a second night we don’t diminish any aspect of a terrific WTU banquet experience.”

The ‘T-Bone’ Malloy referenced is Travis “T-Bone” Turner, one of the stars of Michael Waddell’s Bone Collector television show.

“Since this would be such a unique weekend, we invited T-Bone to double up with us as a bonus for the membership. T-Bone jumped at the chance, and he’s going to be at both banquets, to thank everyone for their support of WTU and share stories and his unique take on hunters and hunting. T-Bone is going to be the icing on the cake for this celebration of deer and deer hunting.”

There are still tickets remaining for the bonus Friday night event – call East Coast Taxidermy at 215-799-1900, or go on the WTU website at www.whitetailsunlimited.com. Tickets are $30 each, and include entry, meal, door prizes, beer and soft drinks. There will also be a free kids drawing and some of the best gun raffles in the country. The event invitation is available on the WTU website at: http://tiny.cc/qh6fr.

“This community is so dedicated, and they are focused on providing a fantastic whitetail weekend in eastern Pennsylvania for everyone who wants to attend,” said Malloy. “This is one of the best conservation events in the eastern part of the country, and doing two of them, back-to-back, is a fantastic way to top off the spring banquet season.”
