What’s your fuel price limit?

[Taco280AI]

Was just over in WA and saw as high as $5.10 which made me not so upset at our $4.15 around Boise. At least it isn't the $6 I saw in CA last week.

Every gallon of fuel burned is a write off. Which means the more miles I put on scouting, grouse hunting and big game hunting is less $$ paid in taxes. Suck it IRS!

And the quicker we warm this planet up and end this train wreck civilization...

Love me some killing the planet GM HD poor gas mileage planet killing trucks... 

Now my boat....that's another story

Can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or serious…but if you think a GM HD burns some fuel you should see the fuel bill at the end of a month for my peterbilt lol

Hmmm- not sure that's something I'd be talking to much about on a public forum.  Thought I had a similar deal some years ago, ended up costing me..

There is finally a initiative getting signatures to repeal the cap & trade, I just signed it at Wallys.

There are a few state reps working on something as well, but if the state voted to put it in I'm confident they will repeal or refund.

I hope so! But getting caught up on some horrible news in Israel that could cause gas prices to skyrocket?!

Absolutely it will. A mouse farts in an oil field and the speculators jump all over the possible supply disruption. Until oil can no longer be traded on the commodities market, anything like this will cause a disturbance.

I don’t understand how this is even a question? Fuel is a consumable product and should not be included in your decision on whether or not to hunt. I doubt I’ll spend more than $2k on fuel for the entire hunting season (not just waterfowl).

$2.98 in Milwaukee right now

Some folks are so strapped due to inflated cost of everything that fuel is no longer a priority. The $20 to drive around the hill behind the house might be the only thing holding up a mortgage or paying a power bill. I am fortunate that I have disposable income and other hobbies that can sit til after season. I really don't feel as secure as I did 5 years ago when our household made significantly less money.

Unfortunately there is no over inflated fuel price forgiveness for waterfowl hunters.

Not all folks are in the same boat.

I am not going to let it stop me from getting out, but I am fortunate to live in a very birdy location these days. That said, I haven't always. No matter where I live I have always found a way to get on some birds within an hour of home.

For me, hunting is about learning, even the most reliable hunting location changes year over year. Adapt and overcome. Learn to hunt your backyard.

Sure there is a nostalgia in hunting where you have for decades. If that is a long drive then do it once a year and focus the rest of your efforts closer to home. Or leave them be altogether, many of the areas that I grew up hunting have fell victim to land ownership changes, DFW dike blowing and I have left them behind.

Don't let fuel cost become another avenue for antis to fight the battle.

Wouldn't be surprised if our "GWOT Partners" announced a cut, seems like their favorite tactic as of late.

No limit
I guess if I run out ,I'm walking.
Going hunting either way though.

Then there is the value aspect of entertainment which is not good for the average person with long drives for poor hunting. Also just seems like a good number are comparing big game seasons to waterfowl? If so, gas prices are not a huge problem since big game seasons are shorter with a one and done in most cases.
