The Alaska Hunter Journal

"You are planning a hunt to Alaska. Are you as well informed as possible about where to go and who to go with and for the species you want to collect? The Alaska Hunter offers detailed coverage of what you want to know. Editor Chris Batin is an experienced Alaska outdoorsman and journalist. Few people can match his overview of the Great Land. Useful? I should say it is very useful indeed."
Hunters Quest, Magazine of the Dallas and Houston Safari Clubs


"I took your advice and hunted the mountains. Actually, the pilot wanted to put us on the flats, but I directed him to your recommendation. He warned us that it was wild there, and he couldn't have been more correct. His last comment was, 'Who told you about this place?' We shot respectable bulls. Your hunting advice was very useful and much appreciated."
Henry McLemore II, MD, Opelousas, LA

Dear Alaska Hunter:

Before you make any Alaska big game hunt, heed this warning:

The hunting crowds are getting worse.

In many areas, game animals are not as plentiful as they used to be.

The market is flooded with incompetent guides out to make a quick buck.

Statistics show that guides typically harvest 8-foot bears because they lack the skill and knowledge to find larger bears for their clients.

And do-it-yourself hunters who don't have an insider providing them with Alaska hunting information seldom enjoy the areas they are in or the fruits of a successful hunt.

However, you can now receive the inside scoop on:

Where the largest big game animals are taken;

The undiscovered, do-it-yourself trips that offer near 100 percent success rates;

The guides with high success rates for big bears, trophy moose and caribou.

These successful hunters all have one thing in common. They subscribe to The Alaska Hunter.

With The Alaska Hunter Journal as your guide, you become one of the state's most knowledgeable hunters. Why? Because with each issue, you receive the most current reports and analyses necessary for success.

You can look elsewhere for this information, but don't expect to find it. Conventional sources of information offer you fluffy stories with no substance. Rarely do these stories satisfy the informational needs of knowledgeable hunters who demand specifics such as harvest figures, game densities, access corridors, and information on guides and outfitters offering outstanding trips, or do-it-yourself hunts with high success ratios.

The Alaska Hunter provides you with all this information...and more.

We cater to you, the experienced hunter who wants the very best. And with The Alaska Hunter, you receive specific answers to your Alaska big game hunting questions.

In each bimonthly issue, you'll receive specific answers to your Alaska big game hunting questions:

New contacts necessary for a successful Alaska hunting trip...outfitters, guides, air charter operators, biologists, hunting experts. Save valuable time and money by allowing us to do the legwork for you. You'll avoid those expensive long-distance phone calls! The contacts and references in each issue are worth many times the yearly subscription price.

And don't forget these information-packed features:
