This is great and I am looking forward to hearing your reviews on these items. As a hunter who is still working on building up my hunting and outdoor gear inventory on a limited budget, it will be nice to get to see what’s good and what’s not before I pay top dollar for something.
The chance to win some free gear is always a nice perk. I am really looking forward to following and commenting on this blog.

Hey Gordy I think that's a great idea! I'm looking forward to seeing what this stuff is and what your(our)opinion is on the quality of this stuff. Keep up the good work with the magazine!

I cant wait to see what you have to say on the new Items. I just started to bow hunt and I am in need of new products. and it will be great to hear from you to see weather or not the product is worth spending my hard earned money on.

Good Idea Gordy! Now if you were only testing the stuff I need to buy, hmmmm, might work out for me!

Gordy thats a great idea...!!! I can't wait to see the items that you have to show use and give your revies and thoughts on the products before I go and buy something that isn't good at all.

This is awesome! It is great to be able to get honest feedback from fellow sportman prior to spending my hard earned dollars. I look forward to your reviews!

It'll be nice to know what's good and what's not before buying it myself. I think he should give the stuff away once a week instead of once a month.Haha. Did you see all them boxes? Good idea, hopefully it'll save me some money by not buying junk.

This is a great idea! Getting a professional opinion sure beats listening to a salesman who has never hunted but tries to be an expert.

All these other hunters wanted to where the new laddies camo nighties, i think i will pass on this one. pink will just clash with my boots.

i am pleased to have this opportunity to be apart of this program to better all that get a chance to participate. i know that the list of testers are long and i am willy to be patience to have that chance of helping others to come to right choices on what works for them.I feel as if i am a part of team that matters in helping a group of people that have a common interest in the same love of the sport. To me this is more than getting stuff ( not as if that part is not cool but ) its making a differences for all of us.

This is cool for all of us Gordy. Whats Inside the Box? For me that is.

hey gordy whats the most rediculous thing you have ever unboxed?

This is a real cool idea!! Can't wait to see what's INSIDE THE BOX!! This will be my third year rifle hunting in northern minnesota (grew up in the shotgun only zone southern MN) and have only been able to fill one deer tag with my rifle. Hope to start bow hunting this year!!

I cannot wait it will be great to find out if the new stuff is any good before I spend my hard earned money.
# focusnut

Can't wait to here what you have to say about what you find hidden in these boxes. With freely spendable money being so hard to come by for many of us in this economy, It will be nice to see what we should and shouldn't spend that money on. Thanks in advance. Oh and I'm sure to get a laugh out of the "some ridiculous Stuff" that you will find.
# jperry25

It will be cool to get a chance to say ya or na on a product and not spend money on it.

Thanks all, for the comments and encouragement. I think this is going to be fun!

akyser 1: I think one of the most ridiculous things I've seen is scent-reducing chewing gum (apple flavored if I recall). Really? I want to kill a big buck, not kiss it!

MDIGGS: Too many good things to mention. Hopefully we can cover a bunch of them in this blog. We've got some real thinkers and tinkers in this industry. It never ceases to amaze me with all the innovative products they come up with.

Gordy,

Thank you, just another awesome way NAHC looks out for the membership. I look forward to your reviews and comments on products.
# Coyote Bob
Friday, June 22, 2012 9:06 AM
Should be a great way for us to catch a glimpse into new products. It has been a long time since I've had an item to test and review, so if this gives me new information and another chance to get free gear - I'm all over that.

Thanks for the new idea and the new opportunities.
# KKELLETT

THIS IS A COOL IDEA. IT SHOULD BE NEAT TO SEE WHATS IN THE BOX
# erikbell

Gordy, great idea on giving a first impression on all the new products you receive. It would also be great to have some of that loot (even the ridiculous) make it down to those of us who are less fortunate. I'm loving the club as a new life member and I highly value real user opinions (I don't mind writing them myself and take this honor very seriously with painstakingly truthful evaluations) rather than manufacturer marketing hype. Having my undergraduate degree in Marketing, I can tell you that manufacturers try to convince customers that you CAN'T LIVE without their product BUT, the real truth comes out in real user reviews. Thanks for taking on this challenge, I know from experience that writing is hard work. Best Regards, Erik Bell

Wow this is a great idea. Looking forward to seeing the good stuff and finding out about the junk. Keep up the good work.

Really looking forward to your reviews...there is so much garbage that might work in 1 wild situation but never work again that these tinkerers think is the next great gizmo
# rlowndes

This is nice that the editor is taking time to let us know what is new and up in coming with new products. Or what is not.
# kmack

Great idea.
# Resident Psycho
Saturday, June 23, 2012 4:11 PM
It's great to hear about products right from a testers mouth. The hunting community spends a good amount of money on gear, and to find out reviews on products good and bad, it helps us not to waste money and what is worth spending!
# rsmith10
Saturday, June 23, 2012 8:07 PM
I agree with you Resident, rather test it myself and see first hand how the product works.
# stevecbman
Saturday, June 23, 2012 8:51 PM
Great idea. There are so many new items available and there is no way of knowing what works without spending the bucks.

Sounds like a pretty sweet gig you got. i would gladly help you out
# TSCHWARTZ

Can't imagine a better work perk. I'd love to help you out by testing some products and giving my humble opinion.

Great! I like to hear about new stuff. I would like to test some of it and give my opinion. Tell us how you got that hog in the video. I'm an avid hog hunter myself.

Awesome! Combines two of my favorite things, hunting gear and free stuff.
# chhurliman

This will help out tons, I always love to hear/see what someone else thinks of a product in a real world situation before I purchase myself!
# lcorley

Gordy, it would be like christmas morning,as a kid again. Like a box
of cherries you dont know what you're gonna get.
# schei53
Wednesday, June 27, 2012 2:40 AM
Great idea Gordy. You know, when I was a kid I always loved buying grab bags just to see what I would get. This will be like grab bags for big kids.
# jdonahue14

It is nice of you to take time out of your busy day to review everything that people send to you.
Thank you
# rhull4

i think it would be a super idea to draw a name of one of our dissabled american veterans and let them win a gift from the box. GOOD JOB MR.KRAHN.

# jybarra
Thursday, June 28, 2012 4:10 PM
I think it is a good idea that you check out the products, but i bet it is hard to pick one person to send it to. But giving someone the chance try new equipment that they might not be able to get on their own is great
# smcever
Monday, July 02, 2012 2:56 PM
Great Idea gordy cant wait to hear back with the reviews and i think its a good thing giving someone the opportunity to receive something they cant always afford on their own believe me im there myself!

#malmart Hey Gordy Ihave never been in a hunting club like this where they let you test products and keep them after u submit what u think of the product. I look forward of testing new Gear. It will be a merical if i won something nice have never won anything my whole life. thank you so much and God bless you

Awesome idea and concept. Being able to see the piece of equipment being handled and seeing what a veteran hunter actually thinks. Cant wait to see what happens.

I'd like to see what's out there that is good hunting gear.
I have a Remington 870 and a rif;le that is older than I am. It is a good rilfe it's a Arisaka type 38 6.5mm Japanese. I just built a tavtical stock for it and reblued it. But it would be nice to have something newer. a rifle or a crosssbo.
# mcarroll

Always want to know if something new is any good or not What better way than to ask a fellow sportsman.Thanks for this wonderful opportunity.

Bugman12 I really would like to win this gear box and see with is in side of it. I just have the basic stuff to go hunting like hunting pants,shirts,and hats, and weapons, that is all I hunt with because I cannot aford to buy any thing else on a fix income. My favor hunting is deer,coon hunting.The reason why I donot go tuckey hunting I donot like the timber rattles snakes,diamond back snakes or the water mussing snake because i cannot afford snake boots, because i am on a fix income. i have never win any thing from nahc and my wife says i am waysome my time and trying to win anything from you'll,and a am starting to think the same way that she is thinking ever on the give away stuff and the click and win stuff. i have been a life time member sent 2-2003, it has been 10years and 2 months that i have not won any thing from nahc.i would like to win clothes ,muzzle loader climbind stands and a cross bow w/scope on it. i use to play the contest every day but know i will play it when i think about it.every time i put in for the stuff to test youall take 50 pts from me and i am trying to get 200pts to see if i can test something big and nice, something i can show my friend that i won on the suffnstuff to test. but known i have to wait to see if my name comes around to test some so i want lose any more points, because i have loss 150 pts and if i had the 150pts and the 82 pts i can be on level 6 and i could my be test something that is high dollar, but all it get is cheap stuff to test and it cost me 50pts.i am sorry this is the way i feel but i am telling you the true,about everything.and i waned to buy the gut knife for 59.99 and i were sirpose to get it but i have not get it yet and i get 10% off of it, but i never came so that is allright because i dont want it any more. thank you again bugman12 P.S. i will keep trying to win something from youall.
