RE: How do you spend your "Archery Time"?
Jeff, I can relate to you percentages. When reviewing my earlier post, it seems all I do is archery-related. While this is true of my leisure time activities, having a family (wife and kids, each with their own interests) limits the time I can selfishly claim as mine. Nevertheless, I still get to play with my toys and get outdoors most days of the year!

Archery time for me is split kinda wacky. Being I have a wife that works full time and I work full time and three young kids, if I want archery time the kids get archery time also. If I want icefishing or fishing time the kids get it also. If I want a little wife time....well FORGET it kids get that too.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
Anyway to answer your question:
Of the 100% of archery time I have, 105% in ABMs case<img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle> I would say that 80% is shooting or hunting and scouting(with kids) 5% computer, 10% Mags and videos....and the other 5% is B.S'n with family and Friends about bowhunting.

Actually all my time is archery time.If I'm not shooting I usually am reading something about it whether it be books,forums,etc,etc.
If I'm at work I'm thinking of archery or talking about the latest shoot or new products.I literally quit fishing in 1998 to pursue my archery,dedicating myself to it so maybe one day I will stand next to the greats in the Winners Circle.
This time of year I shoot Indoor Spots 3 nights a week.On days with no tournaments I am shooting in the basement or outside weather permitting.
When early March rolls around I will shoot every weekend at a 3D tournament and will shoot all of the IBO events and usually will shoot just about every day in the yard or basement.
In August after the World Championship is over I slow down some,I begin scouting and preparing stands,this time of year I begin to shoot my hunting bow,I shoot the rest of the 3D season with it.
When October rolls around I will be bowhunting every minute of everyday that I can and still shooting a few days a week to keep my form in check.This leads us right back to the where we are now.
Thankfully I have a wonderful fiancee' who understands.Her drive of archery is growing every day.
