Money Question

I never give it a thought other than the tag fees which burn my backside to no end. I have most everything from years past. The only thing new is a couple of trail cams. I cashed in a Cabela's gift card and points for one and got one for a 1/3 off the Cabela's price online from Scheel's. Couldn't pass it up. So I spent $100 of my money all told with some scent killer thrown in.

Used to be alot more than it is now, but I built up plenty of stands and a more than applicable bow rig in that time.. I've had to tone it down alot though.

This year, approximately $30 for salt, $140 for plots(reimbursed for half), $25 for scent away products, and $30 for broadheads. Lifetime license for me, so I don't have that expense. Will have to buy a few arrows in the near future.

not really black and white so to speak. a lot of money goes toward stuff used related to hunting, but also for other stuff. like i spent money on diesel fuel/gas and bought a chainsaw to clear a path down to the creek along with a food plot and do some timber stand improvement kind of stuff. it helps the hunting and deer, but i was also doing it to improve the value of my property. picking up a chest freezer to put my processed game in, but i'm also getting it to help save money on food. i bought a new bow that i'm hunting right now with, but i also bought it to help me with my 3D outdoor scores. money spent that can be related to hunting is well over $10k+. I've got a house with land that I can and do hunt on that costs me a mortgage, but i also need a place to live! lol

on average per year, at least a couple hundred dollars goes soley toward hunting i'd suppose.

Don't keep track of it either. It can sure vary a lot from one year to another...especially this year since I made a bowhunt to Africa. With out of state hunts (mostly do it yourself), hunting club dues, gas, food, etc. all I can say is I spend a lot more than the average hunter.
