Lay down the law while you got the chance. I am not married yet and have plans for it to be a while yet but I have a serious g/f for yrs and she knows nothing stops hunting and outdoor activities and she knows that she never wants to make me chose because she wont like the outcome. But on a happier note try to get her involved. my g/f was the complet opposite of outdoorsy like sit inside always. But now she loves camping,hiking,fishing,shooting bows, carp shootingand the occasional hunting she still isnt to fond of gun hunting. Is a little intimidated by them but like theyve said just giveyourto be wifethe chance to catch the bug. Almost everyone will if introduced correctly and you gota good chance seeing as she obviously loves you and will most likely try doing it at the very least just to make you happy and one time is all it takes.

Tell her, Hunting and the outdoors are a big part of who I am and I don't want to change that part of my life.If she can't understand that then it might not be true love. You have to say something now if you don't she's got you and it's harder to dig out later. Good Luck.

1. Of course you won't be able to do everything you used to do when you were single. Believe it or not, you have an obligation to your partner to be there when she needs you. Regardless if you like it or not. It's called MARRIAGE.
2. Marriage is about love, caring and compromise and not convenience.
A lot of idiots cannot understand this. True love has nothing to do with convenience or selfishness.
3. Your life is not over because you missed a season of bass fishing or deer hunting. There is a lifetime of seasons to come. Enjoy what your partner brings to the table and relish in the fact that your combined income will bring you many hunting trips later in life!

No - you will never go bowhunting again. If you have to ask that question, it's over. Just post all your gear on here for a fair price - we will take it off your hands so you can buy household goods.
