I figured that out some years ago. Idaho offers senior discounts and we can buy a 3 year license. I'd have to be hunting at 110 to save money on an lifetime license. “In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” ― George Orwell It's not over when you lose.

VarmintGuy Campfire Ranger V Joined: May 2003 Posts: 23,082 Likes: 10 SW Montana	Jackmountain: Yupp! At age 49 I bought my "last new" pickup truck that was 26 years ago - it's a 1996 Dodge Cummins diesel, five speed, extended cab, 4x4 - it has 140,000 miles on it and is still going strong and I am certain I will expire before it does. I have three styles of Danner "Hunting boots" I wear for separate gun seasons - one for spring Bear Hunting, one for Antelope Hunting and early Deer and Elk seasons and another pair for late harsh weather Elk and Deer Hunting. With the care (maintenance) I give those boots they should outlast me - we'll see. And as far as watches go I took my Seiko Dive Watch off when I retired 25 years ago and put it in my dresser drawer - if I changed the battery out I am sure it would fire up. But again, yupp, I am old - thankfully. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy
