I'd like to see that.
A quality paddle caller will most run itself.  It just needs someone to carry it around the woods. Yoder409

Well relatively speaking, that was only faster and higher than Ole Massey—-which isn't exactly the highest of bars to shoot for.

Tail Feathers

Gun and boots being the most expensive part of it all, probably $1400 or so purchasing it all new.
Love to hunt the King of Spring!

War Eagle

Buying it all new to replace today, probably $4000. Mostly gun and boots and I got a deal on the boots vs what they cost these days.

Hook hanger

Depends on which gun I take but low side would be $800 if packing light and if I'm loading the vest up and packing binos with a higher level gun easily $3500.

Dang Yoder409 you should of made this question like one of those 2 truths & a lie games. Choose somoene to be it then see if we can spot who's lying. I really wish I was lying because the answer is a bit telling. I think I have a problem! :help: 

HIGH SIDE - with most expensive shotgun I have (20ga $900 & red dot $250), gore-tex rain /cold weather gear, mountain boots, gaiters, binos, bino pack, vest, mutliple custom calls (2 pots, strikers, box, trumpet, tube) garimn in-reach, etc could be up to $3,500+ :z-dizzy:

LOW SIDE - carrying a single shot 410 & red dot, normal camo, rubber boots, binos, a few calls, minimalist vest and a few misc things... if I'm being honest still probably about $900 ::)
