I hear that. My plan is to save a little extra over the cost of the hunt and taxidermy work and take the family with me. That way they can experience whatever state, country, or providence I decide to go to. They can sight-see while I pursue game.

That's what I'm planning to do right now for New Zealand. Being that I'm stationed in Japan, NZ is a short hop for me. I'm gonna save and reserve a hunt with a reputable outfitter over there and try to take a Stag, ram, and boar all in the same hunt. I'm going to try to do it as cheap as possible without sacrificing quality. I'm gonna try to catch a military hop over there since they are free. That'll save me several hundred, possibly thousand dollars right there.
