I had 2 people that I suggested the site to today and they would not sign up because they were getting an insecure website warning so I checked on all my browsers and got the same message.

I would like to see a section for Outfitter reviews.
I second this....Outfitters review would be great. I've used this forum to choose every outfitter I've hunted with so far and have been successful on 100% of my hunts because of it and have had a great experience with them all.

Box call section sounds good.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

I've noticed the "not secure" for the last couple week(s) ?? Maybe check on that OG?

Like:
the box call category
Guides & Outfitters (Maybe subcategory they can advertise in - with some $donation, of course)

Couple of thoughts:

1.  I would like a thread preview to pop up when hovering over a the title of a thread without actually having to click on the thread.  Some thread titles are intriguing but some are not.  So if you hover the mouse pointer over the thread title for a second a small portion of the content shows up. 

2.  I would like to see a "new posts" link or something of that sort that has every category grouped into one area.  Maybe a "Gobbler Lounge" or something of that nature.   For instance, when I visit the site I don't necessarily want to scroll through every portion of the site, i.e. (General Discussion, Turkey Guns and Shooting, Turkey Guns Classifieds, etc.).  Rather, if there was a place that I could view everything in one section at once but then still go to those individual sections when I just want that particular information.

Just a couple of thoughts and I hope I was able to make it clear enough...

I think this could be because Old Gobbler is http, not https.
I too would really like to see this fixed.

On threads with more than one page, have an "all" button you can push beside the last page number. This will allow you to click one time and read all replies.

I would like to see a outfitter review page

WNCTracker

I'd like to see the contests for giveaways go back to random number posts instead of the "always online" version. I quit following the giveaways that posted in because of all the alerts for new posts in the contests we're driving me crazy.  I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth...I appreciate the opportunities.

Maybe a permanent thread for Reviews and help finding outfitters and guides. I see a lot of post asking for help with this. Bubba

Lots of good ideas here, box call and outfitter reviews are looking like the front runners. Keep it up Shannon, we have a great site here and we should all do as much as possible to further it. Thanks again Shannon. Now win the powerball so you can make calls full time  :funnyturkey:

Keep posting , I'm evaluating all input to see if its do-able

Still another vote to bring the bow hunting section a little closer to the top.

I agree with the others with bringing bow hunting closer to the top as well as an outfitters section. I will never be able to use the second but I can see where it makes real good sense.

How bout a section to show who makes and sells calls. Maybe there could be an individual page for each call maker to display their calls.
