Zero Outfitter Fees??

Saw some little clip about these guys, anyone familiar?

From what I gather you pay this annual $800-$1,000 fee (2 or 5 state option) for them to put you into the draw in. Then when/if you draw, they guide you for free. Says they put you in for the random draw, but also that you'll build points for the future, that I'm interpreting as preference points/bonus points, etc.

Anyone here have max/close to max points for anything might be worth a look to see if you can game the system a bit. Of course it's a a nearly $60K value you're getting for the low, low price of $800.

Wonder if this will take off at all. Seems like a strange idea.

I’m sure the unit they are putting you in for have great draws odds…..

There are a bunch of things like this out there. The first one I seen was in MT in 2013 and since then I’ve seen a bunch more. Zero guide fees is probably the biggest one. Big Chino has a similar service I believe. I do know a guy that drew a late kaibab rifle tag with one of these companies with 1 point. He was feeling pretty cool about it. I don’t have any interest in this type of thing, but it seems like there is a market.

Isn't there a ranch in an LE unit here in MT doing something like this as well? Something along the lines of that you pay $50 that's due before the draw and if you draw you get access.
