Thank you for hitting our website. The African American Hunting Association (AAHA) has been connecting with people from all cultures for about 2 ½ years to tell the story of and increase the number of African American Hunters. As you will see from checking out our site, we fish too. We encourage all outdoor recreational activities such as hiking, camping, boating, outdoor photography, etc.
Check out the feature article about us in the November issue of Outside Magazine. This is an indication of the national interest in exploring why there are not more African American hunters. “We are 13% of the population of the United States but only 2% of those who hunt are Black.” There is also international interest. We have had contacts from the outfitters from around the world, and we will be going to great venues to hunt and video our adventures in places like Canada and on an African Safari.
We need just a few sponsors to get our TV show on the air. You can view the product by clicking on the outdoor show page to see the 13 episodes of hunting and fishing. I think you will agree our content and quality is as good as or better than shows that are on the air now. What makes us different and more exciting is that we’ve got soul!
Helping youth to get involved in hunting, fishing and the outdoors is a major endeavor. Take a look at episodes 1 and 2, which feature kids learning to shoot trap with shotguns and then going on a hunt for chukar partridge.
The really big news is that we are planning a Black Hunters Expo for spring 2011. If you are a sponsor, outfitter or potential exhibitor and would like to connect with a growing market contact, me right away at donnyadair@yahoo.com . If you are interested in attending the Back Expo, let me know so that I can send you a survey, which will help us to customize the Expo to your desires for products and information. Our time is short but we are targeting Las Vegas or New Orleans as the conference site.
Please let me know you are out there and as we say on the AAHA Outdoor Show
…”We’ll see you in the field.”
