There is strength in numbers so American hunters are taking advantage of it here at the SCI Show in Las Vegas, Feb. 3-6. Earlier today I mentioned the NRA Hunters' Leadership Forum just announced the launch of the “Hunters’ Leadership Forum” portal at www.AmericanHunter.org. and kicked off a social media campaign on American Hunter’s Facebook page to promote our collective voices and address the rapidly evolving cultural war on hunting and hunters' rights. 

In the spirit of highlighting groups who are invested in hunting's future, SCI is offering a special moderated panel discussion Friday, Feb. 5, from 2-4 p.m.titled, "Harnessing Our Power: Banding Together to Face the Challenges Ahead" in Breakers Room B of the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.

This panel consists of professional guides, members of Congress and leaders from the outdoor industry who will offer views on some of the recent challenges faced by sportsmen and women need for us all to work together and support each other. There is strength in numbers and when taken together, hunters, recreational shooters and anglers represent a huge demographic that cannot be ignored. Come listen to experts discuss the issues and offer solutions—and come prepared with questions.
