Default RE: Gas Prices hindering hunting?

I probably put around 10,000 miles on my truck last year for bowfishing travels. Of course, most of that was pulling a pontoon boat. I get about 10-12 mpg with the boat behind me. Gas prices sucked, but didn't stop me during the summer. However, it did hold me back a bit for deer hunting. (go figure)

I travel once a week to the archery shop to shoot. That's 115 miles round trip. [:-] On the plus side, I don't have to drive to work.

I try to make up for the gas expense elsewhere. (no movies, fancy restaurants, I've been wearing the same tennis shoes for three years, ate my dog, live in a box, etc.)
