About Me

The BUCKSNORT HUNTING WORLD enterprise was developed in 1995 by Andrew Lewand. With it's headquarters in Fairport, NY, BHW has grown steadily over the years. Our website,as well as our published newsletters,serve to provide useful information to hunters of all game species. Be sure to bookmark the website and re-visit often as the site will grow considerably in the near future and be updated frequently.

One of the main focuses of BHW is hosting area hunting contests. Each fall we conduct a big buck contest and in the spring we host a turkey contest. Our subsidery, The Bark At The Moon Coyote Club, hosts the Western New York Predator Hunt. These hunts are fun in nature and we invite all friends of BHW to participate.
