I can buy a lot of beef for what I spend hunting every year. And beef is 100% success rate. LOL[/quote] I put six deer in the freezer last season and spent less than 200.00 including license/tags, gas and cartridges.[/quote]
Not everyone lives in a state where limits are generous or game that available. 40+ years ago in Southern CA I’d take 2 deer a year on my tags & fill more for the old man’s friends. These days the no hunting areas & mountain lions have really reduced the deer numbers where before they were plentiful. I can process my own but won’t invest the time hunting as often for so little return in state. Better to be an interloper in CO with those awful CA plates.
