RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
I haven't read all the posts, but I'll just say this. If she is the woman for you, hunting season is every year and a good woman is a lifetime. If I thought for one moment that taking off early was going to harm my relationship, I would have to concede to her. If it came to a point where she wanted me to give up hunting all together, then I would have to re-analyze the relationship.
Do what you know is right and don't be swayed by others on here.
