    Surprised how many home improvement spenders we have. Glad I'm not alone:D

    I dont consider home improvement a hobby, there isnt a single thing fun or enjoyable about it for me.
    Outside of hunting I guess I have to go beer.
    Shooting/ammo might be up there.
    I bought a kayak, but that's a lump sum, and only bought this summer, the last 5 years I'm sure beer & ammo surpassed that price tag.
    Fishing is cheap and I havent done as much the past few years.
    Running/exercise might be up there, but again, other than some shoes and minimal equipment, it's not that much.

    This year.

    New bow, arrows
    New sitka gear. Multiple pieces
    New used camper for hunting


    I'm going with hunting


    Home improvement definitely isn't a hobby. It's a have too. Especially when the wife starts it, then I have to finish it.

    Without a doubt...KIDS!
    I know that isn't necessarily a "hobby", but until the kids are gone...that is where the majority of our money goes. In 10 years, when the final one graduates, I will have a different answer :)

    any extra money i have goes to my GF and kid.... i spend about 50-70$ on beer a month unless im buying up stock seasonal's or rare limited releases. Other then that i don't like to spend money. Now that i got a new hunting dog im sure i will be spending a good bit on him.
