GoHunt worth it?

[Ellensburg]

For the price, I'm not sure how anyone who hunts out of state in the west could ever doubt this product's value. Its a time saver and very easy to use. The insider articles are great too. I like getting the alerts for upcoming deadlines so I don't miss any points.

It would be a lot better if they were more up to date with their drawing odds. It drives me crazy that they dont update the drawing odds for 2018 yet for states that have released the information. It should be up there within a week. Not 8 months.

I am a member because I have a chance at some really cool prizes every month. I've never won anything but if I did win something I know my membership would be paid for basically because the monthly giveaways are that good.

What states have already posted their drawing odds? I have the day off and need some reading material.

It's the best service like this, that I've found. Better than Eastmans, better than Hunting Fool. Does anyone know of anything comparable or dare I say better?

Lastly, it's true Gohunt is pretty worthless for actually planning your hunt, just helps with draw strategy and application really.

What are some sources for this? How about intel?

They don't offer up much Intel on the units.General areas but with as many subscribers you can't get too detailed.At least it wasn't 2 years ago when mine ran out.I don't get to use free trials to see if it's any better now
They tell you about terrain, suggestions on how to hunt different seasons.I went for one unit from their description of it for my son's first elk hunt and the description was WAY OFF reality.That said,it's quick imfo on odds for points you have,success rates,public land percentages,bull/cow ratios.Really though, most states offer it for free.It just takes a little longer to gather imfo.Hell, Colorado even gives you summer and winter ranges of their elk herds in a unit
If you don't like to research on your own definitely buy gohunt.If you have a little time just use states websites.They do have good articles written on their site

all of them?

Wyoming comes out with the draw results
AZ odds are available a cpl weeks after the results if you pay for them

Most of the info they provide can be found on your own but let's be realistic, many don't even read the regs let alone do any research so having all the info in one place is a benefit and, $150 is a drop in the bucket when compared to the overall cost of an out of state hunt.

mixed, use a different email for a new 30 day trial.
