I won't be hunting at all this year. Costs are too high all around and I just can't find the time [>:]

I always go (FL-KY-NY) ... and always will. You've just got to plan better and make it happen.

Still going from Vt to Colorado for elk by truck. Probably won't be going to Ohio for shotgun but it has nothing to do with cost.

Ya those first time big hunts are exciting .
I tried my first one over 25 hrs of driving one way a couple years ago .
Right at normal prime time rut action .
Only problem was rut was late .
Did get a decent buck , but not as much chasing asWe had hoped for .
