18th Annual Military Bass Tournament Off to a Patriotic Start

by: Debra Talley

Byrdstown, TN....................The Military Team Bass Tournament started Wednesday on Dale Hollow Lake out of Sunset Marina. The anglers are having a great time and it all started with registration at the Byrdstown High School gymnasium where anglers from across the country gathered to swap war stories and fish tales. At registration, the anglers were given lots of gifts from American Bass Anglers sponsors and the community.

John Carter Joins Roster of Stars at Military Event

Athens, AL…..John Carter is no stranger to the stage, especially in Nashville, Tennessee, where crowds flock to here him play! But on Monday, May 5th, he’ll entertain the military from across the US as they arrive for the 18th annual Military Bass Tournament in Byrdstown, Tennessee! 

The military anglers, as well as the great folks in the surrounding area, are in for a real treat when entertainers from across the US take the stage to entertain with song and dance in a USO Show planned just for them.

John Carter’s dream has not always been to excel as a country music artist. Towering at 6’5, his original dream was to play football, and the Marine Corps offered an opportunity to continue his passion after high school. “You might say that my ego got the best of me. The recruiter dared me by saying I could play if I was good enough, and the next thing I knew I was signing papers.”

Throughout his 10 years in the military, John has had a range of positive experiences. While aboard ship as a helicopter door gunner for six months, John spent his off-duty hours teaching himself to play guitar. “As a kid, my dad played the guitar; but I was always intimidated to try it. I guess I didn’t think I could do it. It was embarrassing to learn to play the guitar on a ship. I would stay awake late at night and practice in the hanger so I wouldn’t bother anyone. I thought of myself as that next door neighbor learning to play the trombone.”

Miss Tennessee, Grace Gore, To Be Featured Entertainer at Military Tournament

Athens, AL……..The reigning Miss Tennessee, Grace Gore, will be a special guest entertainer in the USO Show planned for the Military Team Bass Tournament to be held at Dale Hollow Lake in Byrdstown, Tennessee.  The show that is planned for the tournament participants as well as community supporters, will be held at Pickett County High School on Monday, May 5th at 7:30pm Central Time.

Grace is currently a second year doctoral student of Audiology at Vanderbilt University. After high school, she attended the College of Charleston in South Carolina for two years before transferring to the University of Mississippi, where she received a Bachelors of Science degree in Communicative Disorders. Grace spent the summer semester of 2005 studying at Lorenzo de Medici in Florence, Italy.
