We have found through the years that Association hunters have an interest in the backgrounds of the Association owner and staff. Most feel that the owner and the staff have the ideal job combining a recreational interest and income source into one. The reality is much different. Jon Nee, owner and operatorJon Nee the Association owner is as busy as any small business, self employed person is with having his hand into every facet of MAHA to run the organization and support his family of four. John Wenzel freely admits that if it was not for his retired military pension it would be financially infeasible to rely on MAHA for his livelihood. Together they cover the bulk of the land and membership work while the Association secretary handles the routine day to day office work. When it comes to upland bird hunting both Jon Nee and John Wenzel have decades of pointing dogs and upland bird hunting experience behind them. They have the calibrated eye for habitat combined with regional knowledge to get the Association member where he needs to be for a good hunt The Association upland hunter can have confidence as MAHA is a business and to that end it is the returning member that makes the bottom line. To get that bird hunter to renew his membership requires each and every upland bird hunting trip for every member to be as good as it can be. To that end the central mid-west is the right location within the country with good upland bird populations and within Kansas, Missouri and Iowa your two Association land staff cover the ground both during land contracting as well as behind their own bird dogs. They have the first hand experience with the upland birds, dogs and habitat to ensure all will be in the right spot. |
