Default RE: please check this out if you are going to use an outfitter!!

I see what you' re saying Bob but I don' t really agree. To all of us that did not go on the hunt, the outfitter could just " cloud" the review if he got a bad one.
Don' t have to agree with me, a lot of people don' t. You are right that the outfitter could cloud the review, but everyone should have a right to speak or defend their bussiness, leaving them out is just plain wrong IMO. Just remember that an individual can also " cloud" the outfitter.

If I checked out an outfitter and he had 1 bad one and 99 good ones I' d probably investigate the one bad one or just write it off.
I would agree with your statement, but finding 100 reviews on an outfitter is hard to do on that website. Wow, you would actually consider checking out that individual that wrote a bad review on an outfit that is running on 99% good feedback. It seems that you might be searching out only bad reviews if you had to check out that 1%.

I am currently using an outfitter that take about 100 people hunting each year, he has provided me with about 300 references, I looked on the site provided and there are three references, two good and one horrendously bad. So here is a guy that has been in business for 20 years and takes about 100 people each year and has three references on the site, and some idiot is able to get on this site and slam him for something that I have no idea is accurate or not becuase he is the only one allowed to post there. More importantly, some potential client may actually make a decision based on the site, especially with people promoting it. Sorry, but I see something wrong with that.

I know you are a booking agent but sorry we need a place to sound off without the idiot who screwed us " clouding" our reviews.
Do you mean me? I' m not a booking agent or anything like that. I' m a hunter. See what I mean about misinformation that you will get from people on the web, and this was just because I don' t agree with someone' s point of view. Maybe you should start your own site called " One sided conversions, only cry babies admitted" .
