Biggest expense would be fuel. Probably about $1000 if I drove. Probably 3k total

Couple of grand? I'm rolling in with a Walmart tent, bottle of Mohawk 190 and a single box of Xperts. Gonna rock this shit.

Sound like a friend that hunts with me once in a while. He brings 8 shells with him. "You can only shoot 6 ducks and sometimes you get a cripple" :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

It seriously wouldn't be that expensive. I went on the epic DHC hunt down in Arkansas. Between everybody bringing food, my tags, ammo and gas, I probably spent less than 400 bucks.

Well true, I kind of forgot about you guys with a long drive. I borrowed my dads little focus and drove it down. Saved a ton in gas money.

I got 13mpg in my truck on a 20 hour trip to GA and it was $305 one way. I'd be driving from AL I think I'd spend less than I did on my trip to GA in gas.

Shouldn't be bad, licenses would cost around $90. Depending on price of gas or what you drive, you could always look for a flight into KCI, ship anything needed to my house.

Hmm...Costs me $140 to fill my tank and I get around 450 miles to a tank. Seems like i would have to fill up more than 3 times. That and if I brought the trailer it could take more. Close to $1000 anyways

This too. Plus KCI is only about 20 minutes from my house.

840 miles from mobile, AL. I think that'd be around $500-600 round trip in fuel if prices don't go through the roof.

I will literally drive right by KCI on my way, can easily pick anyone up. Anybody from up North coming down I-29 could meet me in Omaha as well. You guys coming from a distance just need to fly, we will have more than enough guns and equipment, Jarbo is only about 3 1/2 hours from me MAX, if we are in need of any extra blinds, decoys, guns, I've got plenty to go around. I know it's a ways off, but what does our time frame look like? I haven't even taken the time to look at Kansas' season dates, but judging from Jarbo's posts, I'm thinking a late December, early January hunt seems best. Thoughts?
To achieve success, one must possess dedication, passion and a boatload of decoys.

Here's what Map quest says for me:

27 hrs 21 mins / 1839.62 miles

Of course, it's gonna work out to more because I have to take the ol'lady to WY first.

My neighbors would not be surprised. No room at my place, but my neighbor would let me put it in her yard. If you didn't want to mess with it, my dad has a camper I could have ready.

The key is to get everyone extremely intoxicated the night before. Only a quarter of the people would be sober enough to stand up come time to go. Problem solved.
