“I’ve been using the Huntin’ Fool services for over a dozen years to help plan my application and scouting strategy. My favorite features are the application strategy articles that come in every edition of their industry leading magazine and the ability to use their Tag-Holder list to consult with previous tag holders for up to date intel for units I draw such as camping areas and where animals were found on previous hunts.  onX is excited to offer a Huntin’ Fool digital membership for free to all of our Elite members.”
