North American Hunting Club?

[rentalguy1]

Anybody know anything about this group? It's one of those organizations that sends its members stuff to try out in return for a report on the item. They seem to have a nice web site with active forums and some tech stuff. The membership is $1/month. Don't know if I should send the form back or not...

A good friend of mine tried it out a few years ago. Found that most of the stuff he was sent to "try" was not of the highest quality.

I was a member for a couple of years. Decent hunting magazine. I never received any thing to test. 12 bucks a year for a decent hunting magazine is not to bad though.

Most of the people I've talked to thought it was a second-rate magazine and org.

I got an invite in the mail yesterday too -- someone must have sold their mailing list.

Maybe someone in Nashville.

I have been a member for over 20 years. They do send some pretty nice stuff to test, game calls, knives, scents, etc. , and a form to fill out on each product. I don't get items every year, but probably 7-8 times over 20 years. One of the best member benefits is their magazine, comes out 10 times a year. they have contests and giveaways every month, I enter sometimes when I have time to. I won a nice gun case several years ago. All in all I would say that it is worth the dues just for the magazine. By the way, my wife bought me a life membership 18 or 20 years ago, I do not know if life members get preferential treatment in the field testing program, but I guess it don't hurt.

I am a life member. Have tested a few products as well some good some not so much. The thing I really like is there outfitters book. It has all outfitters other members have used and there ratings and contact info.
