How Much $?
 

I know the question of how much we spend on hunting has come up before (which I didn't reply to for fear "someone" might browse my posts and catch on to me);).

I was interested in what you guys spend on licenses and other fees (i.e state/national forest stamp, public land permits, etc).

I just got my:

VA Resident (Big game, archery, muzzleloader, national forest $ 76
NC Non Resident (Non resident hunting, big game stamps)$140
Area Permits (two military bases) $25 x 2$50

That's $266 and I haven't got my VA bonus permits ($18) or my NC Wild Boar/Bear stamps ($120 yet). That will be another $138, plus the$266 for a grand total of $404, and I haven't left the house yet. Don't get me started on gas andChesapeake Bay Bridge TunnelTolls. Oh well you got to pay to play, I will stop whining now. Are other states just as expensive as far as Resident and Non resident stuff?

$45 for license.

I can not comment on other expenses.....I plead the 5th.;)

RE: How Much $?
 

Don't feel too bad. Just to get a single non resident elk tag in Colorado it is now over $500. If you alsowant to hunt a singlemuliethen there is another $300. And of course you want a single bear tag as plentiful as they are getting out there now for an aditional $251. So we are at about $1050 before you even get on the road.

And don't get me started about all the tolls getting out there and back and the price of gas. ;)And then add on the guide fees and prices if you aren't going to DIY.

Quit Whining!!!!!!!!! ;):D

Here are my permit costs for this year:

CO Archery Elk: $46
CO Rifle Elk: $46
MO Non-Res Archery Deer: $150
MO Non-Res Rifle Deer: $175

$417 before I even step into the woods. Add gas and food and it is still a cheap way to spend spend some vacation time.
