ANY WOMEN INTO BOW HUNTING THAT HUNTED WHILE BEINGPREGNANT?

MY WIFE IS DUE MID-NOVEMBER IN WHICH SHE WILL BE ABLE TO HUNT THE NEW YORK OPENER ON OUR NEW PROPERTY, MID OCTOBER

ONLY THING IS THE DRAW WEIGHT (35-40LBS)

CURIOUS TO KNOW IF ANYONE HAS ANY INPUT ON THIS TOPIC AS FAR AS SAFETY FOR THE PREGNANCY ETC.?

I wouldnt recomend her climbing a tree obviously...and i doubt that she will be able to effectively shoot her bow while 8 months pregnant...just my thoughts...

she would not climb anyways pregnant or not

and seeing that she shoots more than i

i imagine she would be used to shooting around the paunch.

but thanks for your input

Haha, alright. Other than that i don't think there would be any problems with her bow hunting as long as she can still shoot good.

Or are you just picking apart someone's else's message cause you can't come up with anything better to do

"MichaelHunsucker"- had good points - i was responding to his post

and i was appreciative to his comments- theyare good points of interest,I was clarifying to him the situation.

i'm looking towards the health of the baby - not weather she can shoot or not- that i know

The only thing that I can add is that unless you want junior to be born 1 month early drag her deer out for her.....

I have a wife that is due in one month and I can't imagine her going out right now and trying to hunt..... Its hard for them to get comfortable at this stage and must change positions constantly... She might could shoot a bow, but it would be tough...

I think you are pushing it.
