Default Will You hunt differently due to gas prices?

Sorry if this has questionrun through before, seems logical that it may have.

Will gas prices affct your hunting in any way? Be it buying stuff, traveling to hunt...etc.

For Me I may hunt closer to work and home, it used to be get out of work and drive 40 miles to my one spot 3-4 days a week. I may find myself doing that less 1-2 times a week and utilizing other closer spots more often.

I'm lucky too, my spots are not that far from home. Although I think I'll still feel the pinch, it won't affect my time afield.

I will be doing a couple of extra side jobs to pay for the increased expense of driving back and forth from my hunting spots, but I will still be hunting just as much.

My own land is about 75 miles away [:@], so I've been working hard to aquire some closer permission spots. Luckily, I've landed 3 farms that are only half the distance

I should clarify before I'm labeled..that my one spot is some 2300 acres, so it's not as if it's the same stand or even area..but basically the same 40 minute drive to the "area".
