Default how much do you spend for the whole deer hunting season?

I guess some are confusedon a earlier post regarding how much is spent on deer hunting. So this is not a "preseason' question but maybe a question of how much you spend for the whole season. Myself I'm probably right at the $500 mark. I guess thats cheap compared to some of the remarks in the other pole.

Lets see bought land, built hunting cabin, guns, bows, equipment, road, gravel,culverts, stands, fence, gates etc. Approx. $50,000. I'm 48 with maybe 15 good hunting years left. Calculates out to around $3,400 a year to hunt.Don't tell my wife!

Sounds to me if you got some land, improvements to the land,and was able to build a cabin you done pretty darn good. Congrats

I'm in about the same boat as Dan , I already have all the basic equipment I need , so what little I spend is $100 or less .

Lately the most expensive part of going hunting is the $100 of fuel for the weekend.

Here's a good analysis of the total costs, one of the best I have seen.
Some of you may have seen this already.
