Very interesting!! My husband is an addict...a condition know as obsessive-compulsive disorder aka hunting-too-much!!! At least that is what I thought when I first met him! Now mind you, I grew-up in a family of three girls...however, my father was a hunter. Unfortunately, he never involved any of us girls. Well, after meeting my husband I figured...if you can't beat 'em, well then join 'em. We went on a Whitetail Archery hunt in southern Illinois for our honeymoon...that is when I got the fever!!!! I can see now the seriousness of the disease...so addicting!! Well, here we are 11 years, 3 children and many hunting seasons later!!!! I think that there is nothing better than introducing a women and children to the great sport of hunting. We as a family travel to 3-D shoots, practice in the back yard and spend numerous hours scouting and spotting as the seasons approach. Heck, I was hunting last deer season (AT 9 MONTHS PREGNANT) from a blind on our property!!! I personally would not have it any other way. My husband has 4 weeks vacation a year. One week is a family week and the others are for hunting trips. He was in Canada for a black bear hunt last year when I was 4 months pregnant...in Canada again this year when our daughter was only six months old. He will be in Illinois on our Anniversary and miss our daughter's first birthday while hunting Kansas in November! But still I respect him and his love and passion for the sport!!! He is a great father and spends any free time he has with me, our two boys and our daughter. We make the most out of our time together. Other than our family, nothing ----nothing is stronger than his love for the outdoors and the endorphin and adrenaline rush he (and I) experience with every adventure into the field. This passion dominates his thoughts on any given day. Tell your wives that they should be thankful that you are not out hunting women...there could be worse addictions than hunting!!!!

So, good luck men and good hunting!!!
