Most valuable piece of hunting gear for < $100
« on: August 22, 2011, 03:15:04 AM »
Just wondering what everyone's most valuable or favorite piece of hunting gear was that cost less than $100 (excluding first aid kit).  I would have to say that for me it's my Cabelas Ultimax medium-weight hiking socks and liners.  Since finding these socks my feet feel great after a full day of hiking in the mountains.

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

 My matching set of rattling antler sheds I found. Free but absolutely unreplacable!

I would have to add licence and tags but getting them for under $100 is almost a thing of the past.
