My wife’s cousins are in that bracket they tour the world killing polar bear, giant elk and deer and whatever else they want to buy. I over heard one of them say his tag budget is around 150k per year. All of it’s their dad’s or grandpa’s money so it’s nothing for them to drop 30k on a tag. They post all their trophy’s on instagram and thump their chest claiming they’re exellent hunters etc. It used to bother me because you’re right there is no way to compete with that, I finally adopted the mind set that just because they kill bigger animals doesn’t diminish what I worked probably twice as hard for to kill. If the prices keep going up it doesn’t affect me, I never was in the position to even compete in that category to begin with.
