Hello everbody.
Growing up an avid outdoorsman, I've always wished there was a way I could somehow get involved more with hunting and fishing than just being a "weekend warrior". I recently had a lightbulb moment and thought of an idea.
It was a well known fact around our parts, that if you wanted to go on a good hunting trip or good fishing trip, you had to go somewhere else besides where we lived. That usually meant going to Montana, Colorado, Wyoming, or Idaho.
We would go to the local sportsmen shows and check out all of the local guides offering their services.
Other than trusting what they said about their service, you really had no other way of knowing about the kind of success they have unless you were lucky enough to talk with one of their past clients.
And if they were nice enough to get you in touch with one of their clients, how do you know that he wasn't either working for them or just lucky.
I know some guides do offer a guaranteed success rate, but wouldn't you like to know all of your options first?
Plus, how do you know if there aren't more qualified guides for the same area you are looking?
You could do some extensive research over the net or by calling around, but wouldn't it be alot easier if all of this info was in one place?
My idea is to create a site that is not only a guide service locator for your area of choice (within the US), but also a place where you can rate and review guide services. This would make it possible for other potential clients to review opinions from past clients of the guide service that they are interested in.
Please if your a Hunter or Fisherman, let me know what you think of this idea. Would you use a site like this?
Also if there are any guides out there, let me know if you would be interested in advertising your services on a site like this.

Thanks for taking the time to read this post.
