Alabama Waterfowl Association
The name says it all! Concentrating on preserving Alabama's hunting heritage and conserving waterfowl habitat.

Ducks Unlimited
This non-profit organization works for the preservation and protection of migratory waterfowl habitat. Founded in 1937 by hunters.

National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF)
Founded in 1973, this organization is headquartered in Edgefield, S.C., USA. It's a "national nonprofit conservation... organization dedicated to conserving wild turkeys and preserving hunting traditions."

North American Hunting Club (NAHC)
A unique club, offerring an opportunity for hunters to field test gear, a chance to win free gear in each magazine recieved, hunt swaps and member ads, and more.

North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association (NAVHDA)
This "is a nonprofit corporation whose purpose is to foster, promote, and improve the versatile hunting dog breeds in North America; to conserve game by using well trained reliable hunting dogs before and after the shot; and to aid in the prevention of cruelty to animals by discouraging nonselective and uncontrolled breeding, which produces unwanted and uncared for dogs."

Roosevelt/Browning
This is a "classic firearms hunting club." Apparently their goal is to be a sort of Boone & Crockett for folks who use older guns/cartridges, but you have to be a member to get in their record book!

Safari Club International (SCI)
This group says it's an "advocate for 45 million hunters and wildlife conservation worldwide." Sounds like a worthwhile concept to me.

South Carolina Waterfowl Association
This group "strives to conserve South Carolina's waterfowl and wetland resources."

U.S. Sportsmen's Alliance
This is "a national sportsman advocacy organization that protects and advances America's hunting, fishing and trapping heritage."

Women in the Outdoors (by NWTF)
NWTF says this program of theirs is all about "learning new skills, meeting people with similar interests and kicking back in the great outdoors." Sure does sound like fun!
