If ya had $1000 to hunt??
« on: April 05, 2008, 06:34:00 AM »
Maybe we can get some good ideas here so here goes.  If you had $1000 to go on a hunt what would you do?  I know it won't get you a guided wilderness moose hunt in Alaska, but that's kinda the idea, what would it get.

A semi guided black bear hunt in Quebec.  Elk hunt in Idaho if I had a partner to split gas with. dino

Guess I'd do what I always do and spend $40.00 for gas and go hunt the Oregon coast for elk and blacktail.

I love the west, so first choice - DIY elk hunt. Or mule deer. Or antelope.  AS long as it's in the west, I'd be a happy guy.  :archer:

Buy tags NH, ME, MA, CT, NY and Ohio. Use whatever was left for gas and try to hunt with as many Trad Gangers as possible in one fall.

I love huntin' big whitetails, so I would go to Indiana, Illinois or Ohio where tags are available over the counter and hunt some public land. I believe if ya get off the beaten path ya can kill a good one in any of those states! Shawn

Buy a lifetime hunting licence in WV or VA and be done with it...

I may be old school (or cheap) but thinking of spending a grand on a single hunt runs a chill up my spine...

I think most of us will probably spend that much money on gas this year, hunting our own backyards.

At $4.25 a gallon, it's 4 and a 1/4 tank, but it may not get that high, but probably close to it.

We'll probably hear on the news, another record profit yr, the oil companies.  And they'll probably do the same thing they did last year, nothing about it.

I think if I were from MASS like you, I would get a partner and fly to the cheapest closest place to Wyoming and get a deer (mule deer) tag and a doe antelope tag. I think with a partner and some will power you may do it for 1,000 not sure. Cheapest western hunt. If not that I would drive south of you for hogs.  Florida or S.C. or GA.
The hunt is the trophy!
