If anyone here uses the Outfitter Reviews website, managed by hunting Information Systems, Beware!
I submit that the moderators of the Outfitter Reviews are unfair and biased. My brother and I both submitted unfavorable reviews of an outfitter in Manitoba, Canada called High Mountain Outfitters which is owned and operated by Randy McRorie of Kelwood, MB. Myself, and three brothers hunted with this outfitter in November 03, and the results were poor. We were lied to about the past success of Whitetail hunts and the success rates that we could expect on our hunt. Randy McRorie advertises an 85% success rate on big bucks of 140 B&C inches and up. In reality his success rates on such deer are between 6-10%. There were many other problems with the hunt that also led to our giving them a negative review such as being treated poorly by both the outfitter and some of his guides, dogs barking all night long, not being able to still hunt or leave the blinds even though this was discussed before we booked the hunt, etc. Our reviews on the website (www2.huntinfo.com/reviews/outfitter_reviews.php3) were removed by the moderator without our consent, and without any prior notice or justification as to why. This is not fair to people who use this website to gain information and opinions about potential outfitters. Therefore the entire premise for the website is bogus! If you have a bad experience with an outfitter and post it, and all the information you give is true, then how can they have the audacity to remove it and still say they run an ethical site? This is censorship and does nothing to help hunting, honest outfitters, or their potential clients! I am thoroughly disgusted by the moderators of the outfitter Reviews website and will not use it in the future, unless they change their policies.
