Wow, a wife that shoots and can play a guitar! I love classical and jazz guitar music, I envy you.

I don't do the deer camp thing, or use hunting as an excuse to get away. That is why I said it would depend on why you hunt. If you do it for a boys time out or for the solitude then getting your spouse involved would probably not be wise. Some people have different relationships is all. I'm the type that when I am in a relationship I don't have many friends, I devote most of my time to my partner and enjoy it. If I want alone time I will say so and take it.

And if I were to get a spouse into hunting, especially deer hunting we would not do it together. I would put her somewhere on her own with a radio and let her do it on her own. This is how my hunting buddy and I hunt. We do not hunt together. We simply show up at the same time and meet up afterwards to talk about what we saw or didn't see. And if one of us kills something the other helps them with the tracking and dragging.

As far as the girl that screwed the guy over. I think that would have happened regardless. I don't think it had much to do with her hunting. Probably had to do more with the fact that she thought she needed implants or all the cool hunting toys.
