My wife came from a non-hunting family, not anti-hunting at all, just no real position. She now bowhunts with me, we've been to Idaho on an elk hunt together, going again for our 20th anniversary in 2007.

the only time it has caused ANY impact on my hunting is when the kids were to small to leave in the house alone, only one of us could go, so we took turns. Now that they are older, and hunt as well, we hunt together, alone or with the kids. It's easier to buy hunting stuff and my wife actually agrees with the line of "you can never have to many treestands".

the only thing she doesn't do is hang her own stands, I do all the stand hanging, she will scout and pick the placement, I do the hanging. She also stops hunting when it gets cold.
