    My Granddaughter is 9 and living in FL and I'm thinking of how I could get it together. My sportsmans license here in TN is about $140 a year. That's a heck of a deal.

    Heck of a deal if you can afford the original $500. That will save thousands over their life time.

    Wish someone woulda done this for me when I was younger, I am buyin my son 1 this year before he turns 4 - the price is only $401.50

    but he will eventually have to take a hunter safety course to validate his huntin license.
    The finest gift you can give to any fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"
