Last night my soon to be sister in law came by to check on my fiance.Some how they got on the subject of me hunting and how we could afford for me to go hunting with just my income coming in right now.This royally pissed off my fiance. To calm things down I gave her a break down.

1.Hunting clothes $100.00 on clearance two years ago -$50.00
2.Hunting License $27.00 -$27.00
3.Gas $60.00 $10.00 x 6 trips -$60.00
4.Hunting Rifle $69.00 20 years ago .Now $600.00 +$531.00
5.Meat 120 lbs (2 Deer average $10.50 lb to buy) +$1260.00
6.Gear(Backpack,Blind) $0.00 I Made mine $0.00
7.Ammo $0.10 per round $1.00

All said and done total cost of hunting is about $1654.00 profit.
Needles to say she had nothing else to say about the subject

uhm - NO - you SPENT money ... but you're smart not to argue w/a woman; it's like wrestling with a pig in the mud -- they like it & you end up just getting dirty ...

Sounds like FUTURE SIL needs to Mind her own business, she is planting a seed that will grow.

No one has asked that question around my house as of yet but the thought did run through my mind yesterday when I picked up the last few things I needed on how much money I’ve spent on hunting this year. Let’s just say there’s no way I’m in the positive and it needs to be a good season for me or I may kick my own ass!


The secret to a long marriage is to keep on dating, just as you did before marriage. We have "date night" once a week.
Hers is Saturday, mine is Thursday.

The only time a married woman gives those is if your not married to them!

Most of my cost saving is from making my own gear that has more than one purpose

It's best I not know what it costs. Other than work we don't do much of anything else for ourselves so sweetie pie loves going to the camp so she never questions any $s spent at or going to the camp. I'm a very blessed man.


It's hard to kiss the lips at night that chews your a$$ all day long.

Whenever I hear people complain about what they, or others they know, spend on hunting, I think about Troy's tag line....

"I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted....."

Maybe not but there is a tremendous amount of money to be made off of hunters.

Not long after I was married, my wife got to beechin about the cost of my hunting.
In her assessment deer meat is way too expensive. She said, with what I spend on hunting, deer meat must be $1000 or more per pound.
I said, "Yes dear, you're right. But its cheap compared to what I'm having to pay for P***Y"!

Hell, I just got back home from the archery store where I dropped another C-note. That's why I work, to spend my money how I see fit. Tell your sister in law to pound sand.
Edit to add: need pics of SIL or it didn't happen.
