Muley, you missed my point completely. I restated that it isn't what you spend that I was talking about so much as what we call "pretty boys". I know there are people who spend thousands a year just on licenses and that has nothing to do with this, heck if I could afford it I would too. What I'm talking about is those people who are out every year in brand new everything just so they look good rather than worry about if they need it or not. I also never said I care what other people spend, actually I could give a $%^& if they spend their lifes savings on hunting gear. That doesn't mean I don't get a kick out of it when I see this guy trudging through the woods lugging along half of Cabelas in a 200 pound back pack looking like a walking store display. It's just something that I noticed with a few members at our camp (and they know it's true) and I was just wondering if anyone else had friends like this.
