Do they provide good info on how to get started with locating an area to hunt with reasonable chance of success?

Shane, you might want to PM me the details cuz it is looking like I am going to pull the trigger.
I think they do. Also, you can always just pic up the phone and call them right away.
Let me be the first to say that if you decide to sign up send me a PM so I you can use me as a referral. They send out free DVD's and two raffle tickets for every referral you provide and it doesn't cost you any extra. I'll even send you the DVD for free in the mail (after I watch it)!
...seriously, let me know if you sign up. :)

I voted no. I am a subscriber and it provides us lots of usefull info when we are putting in for other states, but its just like any other magazine. I'd say half of the issues are usefull and the rest are full of hunting stories with too many adds and fake looking air brushed pictures. And seriously, is there really that many people that just happen to be wearing a Huntin Fool hat when they shoot their trophy? :bs:

HF is a great publication. If you use it in conjunction with other resources, you can really get some good info and get on big animals. I spoke with Jason and got "contact lists" for each of my draw tags this past year. Jason got out his maps and gave me some spots to check out on one hunt. I parked in that area, walked 500 yards, and was looking at a 190" plus mule deer at 120 yards - good info! I spoke to several HF members about my other tag and ended up walking into a great basin that was recommended and was full of bucks - took a really cool cheater buck on that hunt. Without that service, this would not have happened.
The magazine itself has pretty general info on good units across the western states. It also seems to be a couple years behind the units that are really producing. Once they are listed in the top "5" in HF, they get hunted harder and harder to draw.
