The addiction will cost you time and money and alienate those close to you. I can give you the names of a dozen addicts — myself included — whose wives begin to get their hackles up a week before turkey season starts and stay mad until a week after it closes.

Priceless relationships with people that are "hooked" on this great sport. The knowledge on this sight is priceless......

There is so much I had never heard of when I got here, I have bought a lot but learned a lot more. Tons of good people here that have answered questions and taught me a lot. Ya'll helped me get my first turkey and that to me is priceless after losing the ability to hunt for so long. I do have a list for ins. purposes, but I have never bothered to tally it all up.

A very expensive book this week.

A priceless custom call for my daughter last year.

I really can't put a dollar value on it. It has brought me great joy and new friendships later in life.

I have gained way more than it has cost...all the knowledge on here as well as gun/shell/choke real life testing sure saved me some money in the long run....

Been spending cash on calls way back to the old NWTF and a couple others forums which no longer exist. If I counted it all up, as Boatpaddle or Yoder here on OG could attest, I'd throw up.  :lol:

But, I wouldn't have made those friends and many others here, so its been a win when counted every way.
