If you’ve paid any attention to the world of Western Big Game Hunting lately, then you’ve surely heard of goHUNT.

It’s not a limited use thing – you get access to ALL the information – you just have to put in your credit card info and remember when your 30 days is up or you’ll get automatically signed up for their yearly subscription (if I had a nickel for every time I accidentally got charged for a free trial, I’d definitely have a few nickels). But, this seemed like the perfect opportunity to determine once and for all if the count subscription (currently $149/yearly) is worth the money. So, I’ve been playing around with “The Insider” for a couple weeks now, and here is my take on the situation…
