I'm going to do my best to share a monthly or bi-monthly post about contests and sweepstakes from across the Web. Yes, I did this before and faltered, but I'll give it another go-'round. So, below are the opportunities I've rounded up during the past few days that you might want to consider participating in. Good luck!

I’ve recently taken a renewed liking to Twitter, and after catching up with old tweeps (Twitter speak for "Twitter peeps"), I started to do a little searching for new kids on the block or old kids who I never had the chance to connect with. In the process, I stumbled across a cool new smartphone app called “SafeToCarry."  The app does what the name suggests: It tells you what businesses in your area or across the U.S. allow concealed-carry permit holders to carry on their premises.

If you have a smartphone and live in Louisiana, turning in wildlife violators just got a whole lot easier. Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) recently launched an app for Android phones that allows you to report outdoor-related violations in association with their existing tip411 program.

Here at NAHC, we're running our first-ever “Social Choice Awards.” We’re putting six of the finest turkey guns and six paramount turkey loads in the running for the top spot in two categories: “Magnum Gobbler Gun” and “Strut-Stopper Load.”

Here’s a quick update about the North American Hunting Club in the social media world: We have accounts on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Google+, YouTube ... and in January, we started an Instagram account.     

Ok seriously, what the heck is going on with the “Harlem Shake” craze?

I’ve never been labeled as a high roller, an aristocrat or a member of the country-club crowd. Living up to my redneck status takes up all of my time, including fixing the leaks on my 1950s-era Farmall tractor, patching fence and spreading manure. It also means I’ve been delegated to a life of camping via improvised means.

While it’s sad to see the tradition of small game hunting apparently fading from the American outdoors scene, there’s another consequence to the decrease in the number of squirrel hunters that is beginning to impact—surprisingly—one portion of the fishing tackle industry.

I know, I know I’ve been slacking here with my Win, Win, Win posts. Well I guess I can’t change what’s already happened so I’m going to keep trugging forward and give you the latest and greatest sweeps, giveaways and contests I’ve come across.

If you haven’t had the chance to stop by our Facebook page in the last week, you’ve been missing out on the opportunity to enter for a chance to win a sweet digital night-vision riflescope from Pulsar.
