Its all relative. To kill thousands of geese over ones lifetime, it does cost thousands of dollars.

Yes, I have never had to lease land, but I did look into joining a hunting club this year and at $1,800 a year it isn't something to sneeze at. If I can get some extra time this off season, I am going to do some knocking on doors to see if I can get permission on some additional farms.

I also know how much boats cost because I looked into buying one. Problem is that my dad isn't too comfortable hunting from a boat. Even thought about using it just to go into the marsh on the Eastern Shore and then hunting from the ground afterward, but my dad didn't seem too enthused about that either. Might have something to do with the fact that he cannot swim.

Regarding trucks, I know exactly how expensive they are. I bought a Ford F-350 Lariat crew cab three years ago and just finished paying it off. Mind you, I probably didn't need the Lariat edition, just like I might not have needed the SBE. Then again, I tend to buy the best and hold onto it for a very long time.

Yeah, hunting can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, if you want to spend that kind of money on it, and if so, ammo is a small part of the equation. However, to the average Joe that hunts a couple of times a year, ammo is a big portion of the expense.

Everything is relative.
