If you only ended up with 500 lbs of ground meat, you’d likely be coming out ahead on this hunt..
$4100 for the hunt... assume another $500-$700 for someone to process that huge sucker... and you’re still under $5k
Bison is $10.69 a pound at my local Costco.. and about $13 a pound T my local grocer... and that’s just ground...
Get 500 lbs off a meat hunt bison.. even if you ground the whole thing you’d be saving money (assuming you’d eat that much bison over a couple of years... I certainly would)... if you actually kept the choice cuts as steaks, medallions, roasts, etc you’d be doing even better..
You’re basically getting the experience of the hunt for free..
This looks like a great deal to me to any prospective bison hunters..
And if you do it at the right time of year, you might get a pretty cool rug out of the deal too
