A license is the cheapest part of the hunt.   My biggest hunting expense is probably gas and tolls

It's cheaper to buy everything for a resident of Arkansas than pay for ONE MONTH of television or have ONE good night at a bar.  The cost of the privilege is therefor, insignificant and/or negligible in my opinion.

Equipment, clothing, and time off work are where it can add up, but even then costs can be kept to a minimum with diligence.

For us the biggest expense is getting there. Once you have the equipment for a DIY hunt it can be used over and over.

We elk hunt Colorado. The license is about $500, but the gas round trip is about a $1000 per man.

Public land bow hunters in Mississippi enjoy the benefits of more than 50 Management Areas. At under $60 we can hunt from Oct. 1 through Feb. 15.

I hunt Texas every year, plane ticket from Guam $2000+, license, $330 since I am no longer a resident. Normally two hunts on private land, $3000+, through in a rental car and that is another $1000. Yeah, a bunch of money but it is priceless as far as I am concerned. When I retire in 3 years things will probably change as I will not be making what I make now, but then I will be able to fly MAC from Guam to at least Hawaii which will cut my airfare way down.

Here in Alaska I purchase a combination Hunting, Fishing, Trapping license for $62.00 and a king salmon stamp for an additional $10.00.  

Flying into the places you drew tags for: $2000+
