MISSOULA, Mont. -(Ammoland.com)- The Boone and Crockett Club announced Ripcord Rescue Travel Insurance as their official rescue travel insurance provider. Ripcord provides comprehensive coverage and services for hunters and adventurers with remote rescue, emergency evacuation, medical expense coverage, trip cancellation/interruption, baggage loss and more.
“Our members routinely travel to wild and remote places in search of game and adventure,” said Tom Perrier, director of sales for Boone and Crockett Club. “Ripcord has become the go-to adventure travel insurance provider and has saved many hunters’ lives. We fully recommend the company to all of our members.”
Going afield brings along the inherent risk of becoming injured, lost or seriously ill. Travel insurance gives hunters the freedom to focus on the adventure. Ripcord is lead by special operations veterans, physicians, paramedics and a team of problem solvers who are available 24/7.
“We’re pleased with our new relationship with the oldest hunter-conservationist organization in North America,” said Tom Bochnowski, vice president of business development for Ripcord. “Adventure and exploring new lands has always been an integral part of the hunting experience. Today’s hunters are venturing into some pretty tough places and emergencies do happen. Thankfully the technology exists today so no one needs to feel helpless if something unforeseen happens. We built our company for the “what if” so our customers can enjoy their adventures with peace of mind.”
Along with many major hunting and conservation groups, such as Conservation Force, Pheasants Forever & Quail Forever, Texas Wildlife Association, and the National Rifle Association Foundation, Ripcord is recommended by the major African professional hunters’ organizations, including endorsements from APHA, NAPHA, PHASA, TPHA, and ZPHGA.
Ripcord is also the trusted evacuation and rescue program for hunters Jim Shockey, Larry Weishuhn and Mark Peterson.
