you have got to be kidding you can hunt year round for deer???? man oh man... i do not think i would be married if it was that way in IL. she can barly handle the 3 1/2 mounths that we get. although i made her a 100 page venison cook book and she is starting to warm up to it now. in fact she is going to get a bow in the spring. hopefully she will get into it enough to practice with me and maybe go to a couple of 3-d shoots.
