From a woman' s point of view: My 25th wedding anniversary fell on the opening day of bow season. My husband (non-hunter) and I celebrated 3 days later, between the hours of noon and 3, when I took a break from the field! October 15 through the middle of December I hunt whenever I' m not working. I don' t cook, I don' t clean, I' ll occasionally throw a load of wash in. I plan on trapping this year, also, for the first time.
