Some things I saw at DSC Convention 2020

Is DSC or SCI generally considered the better con? Personally, I like DSC better as a group, especially since they often directly collab APU to put their money where there mouth is.
 
I’m not sure you can say one is better than the other purely based on the exhibitors. Although I was at sci Vegas in 2018 and dsc in 2020 comparing the two I believe sci was/is bigger in size. Maybe someone that went to both this year can comment more.
 
Did anyone speak to the cape Buffalo in Texas guys to see what that was about? I saw it and thought "Well there is a recipe for disaster."
Cape Buffalo and maybe Indian Gaur in Texas! Can’t wait! I’m sure they already have Bison? A trio of DG in the “heart of Texas”! No need for proper head stamping of your cartridges! Ha! Ha! Ha!

I've been to both. they are generally similar in size- both overwhelming in quantity and quality of exhibitors.

I like DSC better. It seems more welcoming. Also, it's way cheaper to attend- open to the public, no need for DSC membership, and you can usually get a pass for the whole convention for what a 1-day pass at SCI costs.

Also, I really appreciate DSC being free to military.

And DSC does have the AH dinner where you can meet forum legends like @BRICKBURN , @AfricaHunting.com , and more!

Ultimately, both are worth the trip. You'll have a blast.

The name of the company eludes me, but I talked with them at length in 2018. They get ranches to commit to raising game that is sold and or hunted. They are also looking for investors to own a herd or land. It’s an interesting model and my description sucks. They had plans in motion to get Buff down near FT Stockton or Big Bend I think. But that is a very expensive Endeavour, so I’m sure they are still working on it. Wildlife specialties maybe. I have some emails from them. I’ll go see if I can dig up the website.

I wonder if this is the group that Doctari is working with here in Texas. He talked about it last year at his book signing at Gordy and Sons.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
