Question is - will you really be happier staying at home? My wife was that way when we first got married. I almost gave in until the realization hit me that I DESERVE to hunt - It's my right - it's what keeps me happy! You could be doing something far worse. Would she prefer you take up the hobby of bar-hopping? I think not. Hunting is something wholesomethat is passed from father to son/daughter/wife that nothing in this world can compare to. Ask her if she would like to go one day - if she refuses (for whatever reason), tell her the truth - that she is selfish - and don't let her go shopping anymore.
