The second annual Hunting Show, held in conjunction with the Federation of Anglers and Hunters and the magazine, Ontario Out of Doors, is shaping up to be the most important yearly event (next to opening day that is) that hunters can look forward to. According to news releases, the actual exhibitor space has been increased by a full 75 percent over last year. More firearms manufacturers will be displaying their wares this year to make it one of the largest displays of sporting firearms in North America. All other aspects of hunting are covered as well, including boats, bows, apparel and all -terrain vehicles. If you're looking for something, and can't find it at this show, there's a good chance it doesn't exist. The response to last year's show was amazing, and exceeded even the most hopeful of the organizers. It did, unfortunately. cause some discomfort for visitors in overcrowding_ and severely taxed refreshment facilities. This year, however, they are taking no chances as dining, lounge and snack bar areas have been doubled. The staff for these areas has also been increased dramatically to provide better service. This year, as well, there will be areas where you can just sit, relax, and give your feet a rest for a while. "We go caught off guard at last year's show," said Rene Roberge, a show spokesman; but it doesn't look like that's going to happen again. There will be at least one booth there, which will be of interest to wives and sweethearts. The Association for Women Anglers and Hunters will have an excellent display, and members will be on hand to answer many of your questions. "Our theme for this year is big -game hunting," said Marilyn Ross, O.W.A.H. member and spokesperson. At the Outdoor Theatre, there will be films on moose, deer, bush survival, hunt preparation, sighting -in your rifle, reloading, and one that's bound to get..you think- ing — "A Question of Huntine". Guest speaker confirm- ed to date include world-class hunter Jerome Knap; Mike Buss from the Leslie Frost Centre in Dorset; firearm manufacturer representative Lloyd Libke; and Toddy Hall from the Hudson's Bay Company. "We may actually have a demonstration on field - dressing a deer," said Ross, "if the Ministry of Natural Resources has a roadkill turned in during the show." And "twang" is the sound, not "bang", at the Four Seasons Bow and Gun Club's slingshot range, where you can try your skill at hitting targets. Or you can also visit the Ontario Bowhunters Association's booth if archery is your game. It features bow -hunting demonstrations by experts, said Ken Smith, one of the organizers. Lectures and how-to in- structions will all be part of the program. Afterward, you can test your skill firing crossbows and longbows, under their tutelage. At the Canadian Knife Collectors Club, you'll see displays of exquisite examples of knife making. There will be knife -making demonstratins at the booth by such famous Canadian masters as Andre Bajkor; Phil Lees, and staff who run Sheridan College's knife - making course. Another C.K.C.C. feature is an exhibi- tion of knife throwing. And you can try it yourself, said spokesman Bill White. "Under strict supervision, of course." "Every boy has thrown a knife at a target at one point or another," he added. "Our purpose is to teach safety and the proper way to handle knives." During the show, the club will be presenting special ' knife awards to the Hunter -Trapper of the Year win- ner, and to the Canadian Taxidermist Association. The displays at the Canadian Taxidermist Associa- tion's booth are always eye-openers. You would almost expect some of the mounted game animals, birds and fish to come to life, even as you study them. They're all first-class examples of taxidermy and they will be judged in a competition. Many of the mounts were ob- tained from museum collections and natural science centres. Association members will be on hand to answer questions on taxidermy from the public and to conduct seminars for other taxidermists, said Martin. The Safari Club International. will also have an ex- hibit of big -game animals at their booth, said O.F.A.H.'s Tom Walters. Just taking in all of these club's activities can take a full day at the Hunting Show. Add over 100 more ex- hibits and events, and the show prol'nises to be an action -packed three days. , The Whiteoaks Anglers and Hunters' air -gun range and target -shooting competitions will also be returning this year. Last year, the popular "hands-on" event drew more than 1,400 young participants during the Hunting Show. Spokesman Bob Cooper said that the competition is aimed at kids under 18 years of age, although adults are welcome to use the range, provided that members of the younger set aren't waiting to do so. But you must be under 18 to enter the contests. Cooper added thatthe youngest shooter at their booth last year was only five years -old. Eaeh youngster fires five shots at a target. His name, address and score is then recorded; and at the end of the show, there will be prizes given for both high scores and mystery scores in each age bracket. "Safety comes first," said Cooper. "There will be at least one registered Firearms Safety Instructor on hand at all times." Youngsters unfamiliar with air -gun operations will be instructed by trained teenagers, under the watchful eyes of a safety instructor. "Kids learn faster from other kids," Cooper explain- ed, "because they relate to their peers better than they do to adults." The competition will be an ongoing show event. The International Centre is located on Airport Road, one mile north of Toronto International Airport. Show hours: Friday, Sept. 9 — 1 p.m. to 10 p.m.: Saturday, Sept. 10 — 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.; and Sunday, Sept. 11 — 10 a.m'to 6 p.m. Admission: Adults $5, children under 12 — $2.50. Parking is free.
