Anyone else addicted?
I can't stop thinking about bowhunting! Last week I grazed a buck, the arrow got deflected. Now I can't wait to get out there again! I was telling a non-hunter friend of mine about bowhunting. I told her it is the greatest, highs and lows all season. Sometimes I wish I had a less frustrating obession, but I love bowhunting! Every deer I tag just intensifys the desire. Even just being out in the woods just is great!

My wife rolls her eyes at me all year! I subscribe to every bowhunting mag I find , I shoot at least three times a week all year long and when season starts she could get a better conversation out of our dog unless she's talkin about bowhunting<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Oh yes. I don't even try to explain it to non-bowhunters. I just invite them to try it.
I tell my wife about the deer, squirrels and foxes I see. I talk about the tracks I find, the sound of falling acorns, the deer moving to new bedding areas, the rut activity ... every day hunting is an experience.

Hell I haven't even tried it yet, just the preparation to go bowhunting is driving my wife nuts.
Our season starts in 5 days and it is all I talk about currently. If the actual hunting is as interesting as the scouting it is going to be great. I have been able to spend some quality outdoors for the first time since I was in the service and it is great.

RE: Anyone else addicted?
Yeh, right, sure, this is a joke .... RIGHT? Why would I want to stop thinking about hunting. I've been doing it for 50 years. Besides that, it's one thing I'm fairly good at.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> AND, no one can find me out there. It's not an illness... I see it as a reward.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
