    I always reckoned venison cost me about $300 a pound, what with multiple rifles, practice ammo, a dog and all it's costs, 4x4 to look the part, fixed and rotary wing costs, the clothing, the list goes on.

    Yeh - back in the day, somewhere else, I worked out it was costing me the equivalent of $250/kg to catch fish...
