Quality Deer Management Assocation 2012 Convention - Land & Widlife Expo - Nashville, TN.
I have been to the following and this year they included the Land & Wildlife Expo seminars for QDMA members. That has been my primary reason I have been going all these years are the QDMA seminars, most information comes from research that won’t be published for years.
These are the ones I have attended.
2006 - 6th QDMA National Convention in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania
2007 - 7th QDMA National Convention in Chattanooga, Tenn
2008 - 8th QDMA National Convention in Chattanooga, Tenn
2009 - 9th QDMA National Convention in Louisville, Kentucky
2010 - They moved the dates and already planned my family vacation to the dates they moved them to, which was bad since it was close to me.
2011 - 11th QDMA National Convention in Nashville, Tenn – & Land & Wildlife Expo
2012 - 12th QDMA National Convention in Nashville, Tenn - & Land & Wildlife Expo
If you go to Land & Wildlife Expo look for these speakers for seminars to attend
Bryan Kinkel the best out there, got most of my information for Sanctuaries from his seminar in 2006., 2007 ate dinner with him and that’s when I started using Reconyx Game Cameras.
Neil Dougherty – it was 2006 or 2007 when he talked about laying out land using the wind, great information.
Of Course Dr. Grant Woods, Dr. Craig Harper, Dr. Karl Miller all top of the line speaker that I have incorporated their information into my habitat practices.
Best thing about the seminars these are professional land managers not your TV BIG BUCK SHOOTEM DEAD speakers, every now and then those will come in but the best thing about it is you can skip those.
Then there are some other great seminars this year – Fish, Waterfowl, Turkey, Deer, Predators, Upland, Hogs, and Trapping
These are the ones I have attended.
