RE: Bowhunting girlfriend/wife...good or bad idea?
I say if they have a natural interest there is nothing wrong with it but it is critical that they upon having a certain level of proficiency that they pull their own weight other wise that could seriously impact your enjoyment of something you love or live for.The same goes both ways for spouses or boy friends and girl friends.A person shouldn't enter into the realm of their mates endeavor if it diminishes the enjoyment for the other.
Hunting for me is something that I practically always do alone,I may start from the same place as a friend and end up at the end of the day at the same place but other than that when hunting it is myself the woods and the game.Having said that I would have no problem introducing the sport to a young person or any one else who had the interest.As long as I had enough of the time that I would like to devote to my own hunting (solo).
