I am on a fixed income and the high gas prices is gonna hurt big time.

I am not sure how I am going to get to the woods this year.

Gas prices are going to really affect my hunting season this year. last year i went hunting almost everyday after school and every weekend. i probably won't even hunt half as much as i did last year.

No Hunting This Year.[:@] When gas prices hit $2/gal., and stayed above that level (now $2.499/gal.), that put the brakes on any/all hunting for me.[]
Currently, selling off some guns.

What's a Bama boy doing in New York City?
Did you do like a friend of mine and pull a redneck travel trailer down
Broadway with a 1985 pick up truck?

I know for us, we drive approximately 75 miles one way - up and down hills into the mountains of maryland. so instead of doing lots of weekend and day trips, i am leaving opening day and roughin it for 5 days, each season. I just took off work. We can build camp fires were we go, so we just have to bring the wood and the matches.

You can't be serious. I'm paying 350 dollars for gas alone this year to go hunting. I love venison.

I'm driving 1020 miles to go hunting this year. From Florida to the Ozarks. I have a couple lawns ont the side . I saved up around 1200 dollars. So I'm trading sweat for a week of quality deer hunting. when all you have is a crowed WMA to hunt you get desperate.
