Buck Fever or Soul Fever Romans 10 :1
After searching through the store to buy camo I soon learned why I don’t hunt or fish a shirt silky felt so good $78. A pair of Camo pants $85 I thought well, maybe I will see what one of those nice lookin little guns would cost. The cheapest gun I found cost $450 and it was not even 8 inches long I can only imagine what a rifle would cost since they are much bigger. To spend that kind of money yea, you really must have buck fever. LOL! Yes it really cost something to have buck fever.
