Default RE: cheapest way to start hunting.

$175.00
That wouldn't even buy one a pair of boots that can withstand
some of the conditions inareasI hunt...I replace those every 2 years....
Clothing, boots wear out first/foremost in areas I hunt and those take first priority in replacing before the next season....Shelters are next.....
Bottem Linehunting is an expensive sport to start off and doesn't get any cheaper as the years go on...
And thats not buying the best of the best,its buying what you need so that it will be fun/successful.......
Clothes,Shelter, Boots, vehical maintenance/repair costs, make or break a trip/even a day hunt..These are the things that send a guy home early..
I just buy the best I can afford, maintain it properly,and keep all my vehicals ingreat condition....That in itself cost me about $2000.00
a year....
