well i always thought hunting cost money anyway...what difference does it make who you pay it to. yeah i can hunt on my own, i can use my trucks and equipment, haul it where i want to go. i can pack my food in, cook, do the dishes, cut firewood and do all the camp chores and still hunt. i happen to like doing all this but if i didn't have the time giving the money i would spend on several weeks worth of hunting to go out with a guide and let him do all the camp work so i can just hunt all day i would have to say would be worth it to most people. its just coming up with the cash all at once it the biggest problem for most. guess everybody is a sucker, we all got to pay to play one way or another.
