SUBMITTING A STORY

  • Keep stories between 500 and 1,500 words, saved in Microsoft Word format.
  • Submit original full-resolution photos, NOT the smaller thumbnail versions, as .JPEGS (.JPG) or .TIFF files.
  • Make sure to send a variety of photos to support your story (scenery, glassing, hiking, camping, live animal, harvest from different angles, etc.). The more pictures we have to work with when designing a story for the magazine, the better.
  • Send the first and last names of everyone in your group photos

SUBMITTING PHOTOS

You do not have to submit a story to be in our magazine!

Photos alone have the opportunity to be featured in the following ways:
- State Section
- Trophy Room
- Social Media

2025 Cover Story Prize

For 2025, we are excited to have Weatherby continue to sponsor our Cover Story Contest. The 12 stories that are selected as covers will receive a Weatherby Model 307 Alpine CT rifle. The retail value of this prize is $2,199. On top of that, the Cover Story winners receive 20 copies of the magazine they are featured in.
 

2025 Printed Story Prize

Every story that is printed in our magazine in 2025 will receive a story package. These packages are valued at around $200 and include HF and Gear Fool swag and some great items from a few of our advertising partners. Items in this year’s package include Marsupial Gear meat tarps, Wild Tech GameGrip, Koola Buck Anti-Microbial game bags, a 10 oz. bag of Whiskey Morning Coffee, a Gear Fool water bottle, a Huntin’ Fool hat, and four free copies of the magazine.

 

2025 Trophy Room Prize

Montana Knife Company is continuing to sponsor our Trophy Room Photo Contest. Each month, the winner will receive a Magnacut Stoned Goat 2.0 knife engraved with the Huntin’ Fool logo. The MSRP of this knife is $225. These winners are selected based on the quality and composition of their photo.
