Default Buckmaster


About a year ago I let my Buckmasters subscription expire, among the poor content I found out some troubleing info about them.
My wife was working for a advertising company and now that she switched careers to stay at home mom, I' ve been cleared by her to share. Three times a year buckmasters would use my wifes former company to advertise through direct mail advertising. Cost for such advertisment $ 4.00 per 1,000 cards(post cards, card packs) with no less then 500,000 cards=$2,000 a shot. Not much considering the $$$$ they have rolling in. How much would buckmasters pay? 0.00. Thats right nothing, instead they would give in return there subscribers mailing address.[:@] I couldnt belive it when she came home one day and asked " do you read a mag Buckmasters" and then told me the news, that was enough for me.

On another note, I love this board, have been visiting and learning here for a long time. Thanks to all.

That comes as no surprise to me. I think any serious bowhunter can see right through J. Bushman and his marketing machine. He does do some good things to promote hunting and help out kids, but he' s in it for the money. Now, there is nothing wrong with wanting to make a living, but don' t try to pass it off as a true love for the outdoors.
