How expensive can hunting get

[fabsroman]

I was watching Benelli's program tonight featuring Ms. Nebraska 2003 hunting for elk in New Mexico. The hunt was on a privately owned ranch that I think was 35,000 acres and if I am not mistaken, the ranch name is Chimo Ranch.

I thought it was a great hunt. There were plenty of nice looking elk and the lodge and food looked really nice. I was actually interested in paying to hunt there, until i saw the price. Hunts at that ranch cost $12,000.

How can mere mortals afford to hunt anymore? This stuff is really killing me.
