Prep like a Pro. Hunt like a Fool. Huntin' Fool Free Membership

Since I joined, I went from tag soup for two years to harvesting six animals in four years, DIY style and mostly solo, too. I have been with and helped friends get six animals in that time frame, too. I give Huntin' Fool full credit for giving me the tools and motivation to get the job done.
