Are you talking about deer? turkey? waterfowl? something else? How far are you willing to travel to hunt? Bow or gun?
As for the economics of it, you're probably never going to hunt meat around here as cheap as you'd pay for it at the store. I like to hunt, and I spend a fair amount of money doing it. The meat is a bonus, and it helps offset some of the costs. If I golfed, I'd probably spend just as much money over the course of a year, and wouldn't have the meat to show for it. And if you want to get some of your costs down, learn to process your own animal. I enjoy it, and it's not that hard. There are plenty of videos on Youtube that demonstrate how.
