too dang much. I do eat all the deer I kill, but for me it isn't about the meat. That is just a plus.

Over the years, a good part of my life. It cost me a lot of watching my kids grow up. It cost me hundreds of days away from home. It cost me gallons of sweat and miles of boot leather and more than one scar.
As for money, heck a lot. But I can replace that.

I figure every time I kill one the price per pound goes down since I reuse most of my gear. I also use some gear for recreation which can also deduct some off price.
Beside the quality time with family and friends in God's great outdoors is PRICELESS!!!!!

I envy you guys that can figure it down to only $475/lb. That wouldn't even get me to the woods.

A heck of a lot less than the $80K offshore boat sitting in my backyard and $400 worth of fuel each trip to go get 20-25lbs of filleted grouper and snapper. I'd go so far as to say I could hunt the rest of my life and not spend half that.

Somewhere there is a government study on that exact thing. I think it was govt. May have been NSSF.

Theres no way to put an accurate price on it IMO. Its a ongoing thing over a lifetime for many of us, and the meat at the end is just a bonus IMO! While I love and eat any deer that I dont give away. I would still hunt even if there wasnt meat at the end, its just a bonus!
