If you'd like to buy me a new bow, some tips and a new target, I'll send you an address you can send the check to. Otherwise, I don't recall the box on my income taxes that lets me take off a few grand for a new rig.
Likewise, I used to work on cars. I restored a 69 Camaro. All my free time and money went into it. There was no tax break. When I sold it, I claimed the income. A hobby, no tax break.
We're not talking about exemptions made professional gamblers. I'm talking about hobbyists. If you would like to pay for my hobby, I'll gladly accept your donations. Currently, the government draws a line.
I have always wanted to get into Archery. Love a bow. I am very envious.
