It doesn't matter if it's wife, girlfriend or just the neighbors wife. I think anytime you can get someone excited and into hunting it's a good thing for hunting and it has it's feel good properties. You have to realize up front that you loose some alone time, scouting time, tree time and free time, but you know that going in. I've been responsible for getting 3 kids that weren't my own into hunting(it's been a few years ago in Georgia). I got them shooting, helped them practice, hung some stands with them and was buy their side when the shot their first deer. It was a good feeling everytime. Just make sure your neighbor agrees with you taking his wife hunting.[8D]
