2024 Banquet Special Guests
David and Karin Holder
March 22-24, 2024

In a few short weeks, we will celebrate our 44th annual awards banquet.  Join us for amazing seminars, shoot a round or two on the range (indoor and outdoor) and bid on that hunt you’ve had your eye on at the live auction.  We hope to see you there!

The West Virginia Bowhunters Association welcomes David & Karin Holder.  David will be our guest speaker for the 44th Annual Award Banquet.  David hosts the award-winning ‘Raised Hunting’ TV show on the Outdoor Channel.  In 2012, they decided to create the show that captures all of those life lessons, mistakes, and life-long memories that they have gone through over the years. Their goal was and is to educate the public on the benefits of hunting, reach families and others who share a passion of the outdoors, and shed light on what this beautiful world has to offer for all of us.

David & Karin are accomplished big game hunters of many species.  David’s knowledge of whitetail deer and the behavior of mature bucks is among the top in the country.  His keynote address should be very informative.

The WVBA looks forward to your visit with us!
