how are you going to change your hunting habits with the high fuel issues? what are your predictions overall about guide fees and lease prices. for me, i will continue to hunt a week at a time and drive less often. my truck is a paid for 01 silverado so i cant see selling it for a more fuel efficient truck since the payments on the truck can pay for the fuel of my old truck. not only that i cant get by with a smaller truck like a tacoma. being gone a week with 2 dogs i have my silverado loaded down.
as far as texas bird hunting in general, even before the economy problems we have now i have always had issues with the high guide fees and lease prices. to say it nicely it absolutely burns me up how commercialized texas hunting is. it doesnt help that 99.9 % of my hunnting is on public land so my mindset just isnt into the commercial hunting. i hope that there is such a big impact on less hunters that the lease prices will come down. but deep down inside i feel there are always enough big money people that will continue to pay whatever it takes and keep the prices up so high for the average working man.
