I guess I don't care? Hunting is my entertainment. It's what I do instead of playing video games or going to the bar or spending money on sporting events. Or golf *puke*And how much did that wild game cost per lb? Used to have some deer hunters that hunted my land, told me they were meat hunters. One always had to buy a new rifle for the season. Drove 50 miles just to come here to hunt and then did alot of road hunting. I told him I'd buy beef with all the money he spent to shoot a deer if meat was the goal.
I don't ever want to figure out what my walleye costs me per lb to catch. lol
The benefits of hunting and fishing are I get to do something I enjoy immensely, and also fill my freezer. Most folks spend all their money on other crap and STILL have to buy meat.
But to your point, I'm not a gear head. I haven't bought anything substantial in years. Other than ammo and gas, I've invested in my hunting stuff and now can enjoy it.
If you want to think of it another way, do you quantify how much your groceries cost by factoring in the amount of money you paid for the truck you bought to bring you to Hornbacher's? I doubt it.
