Default Huntin Fool Publication

Does anyone out there subscribe to this publication? If so, do you feel that it' s worth the money. They charge $100 per year from what I saw on their website and it' s a service that researches areas to hunt for those with apply for draws and they also recommends outfitters, etc.

Sounds like a $100 scam to me. Booking agents are free for hunters to use. Booking agents will have the same or better information.

If you put in for lots of out of state hunts it is a good service. They give info on the best units and draw odds in each state, when and how to put in for the draws etc.
They also have a service where they will put in for all the draws for you if you want them to.

They also have LOTS of discounted outfitter hunts, last minute cancellation hunts,
land owner permits, etc.
They have two outfitter sections, one is hunts they recommend because they have been on the hunts, the other is outfitters they have not been on hunts but they feel they are reputable but recommend you check them out fully.
Some of these hunts have amazing discounts, especially the last minute cancellations.

If you put in for out of state hunts and occasionally go on guided hunts, the service will pay for itself many times over on your first discounted hunt you go on.

The service I like is that when you draw they publish your name in the magazine which comes out monthly and you can call other people in the service who drew the same hunt. They also send you a list of others in the service who drew the same hunt in the past so you can call them and pick their brains.

I have called and talked to them several times on the phone and they are nice people and quite helpful.
I do recommend the service.
