Great Outdoor Games: The ESPN Great Outdoor Games is the largest outdoor sporting event in the nation. This year, athletes competing in target sports, timber events, sporting dogs and fishing gathered in Madison, Wisconsin to thrill crowds from all over the world. The Ben Meadows Company is proud to have taken part in this exciting event. We met a lot of great people and spoke with many Outdoor Pros who, just like us, couldn't stay away from a gathering this important, so close to home. In fact, this year's games attracted over 68,000 fans and our own staff photographer, Derek, was one of them. Take a look at some of the great images Derek captured at the games.

	The fishing events garnered great catches for some of the sport's most respected pros.
	One of the earmarks of a true champion is knowing how to unwind.
	The Outdoor Games provided opportunities for spectators to try their hand (or foot) at some of the events. Here attendees discover log rolling is even more challenging than it looks.
	Quick feet and excellent balance aren't the only skills log rolling requires. Superior strategy and the ability to psyche out your opponent can mean the difference between victory and an unexpected dunk in the pond.
	The sporting dogs events were very popular with the crowds. These world-class canine athletes truly stole the show.
	Another great shot from the sporting dogs competition.
	And speaking of hot dogs. . .
