Driving vs. Flying?

[Billy Goat]

Ask me today, F driving.

Left at 11am EST(9mst), got home at 10pm EST, 35hr trip.

Few days and I'm probably ready to do it again.

1 longer lunch stop, a quick stop at a NP on way by, and 1:15 hr rest stop in Kansas. Put me down as not a fan of Kansas.

Best of both worlds…

I can turn a 30hr drive into a 12hr flight and don’t have to deal with TSA or any of the crazy people at the airport.

I ain't never seen no Bucee's with a runway so I will be driving, Thank you.

It gets better past the state line into CO

I'm fine with Nebraska, even eastern Wy, really don't like Kansas. It's not rational.

I would drive, unless it made more sense to fly.

On the other hand, I might fly, unless it made more sense to drive.

Its a crap shoot. Last time we flew there and drove home. We were successful so it worked out perfect. IF we hadn't killed flying home would have been nice and quick. 4 hour flight vs 28 hour drive.

Everyone should fly for a big game hunt because it really narrows down your packing.

I will fly on shorter trips when I’m trying to save PTO, I learned a long time ago that flying or redeye drives often mean an extra hunting trip per fall.

When I lived further east and it was 20 hours to drive out west I flew a lot more than I do now to hunt. I also had 2 weeks of PTO then and not 4 so the math was different as well.

kindof agree and wouldn't be here if I didn't need a wife, job and son. lol
