Confessions of a Whitetail Addict

RE: Confessions of a Whitetail Addict
I have actually skipped High School to go deer hunting and got a note from my parents stating that I was needed at home (1978) Some states do the smart thing and just close school.
I have actually driven a motorcycle to go bowhunting. I was a University of Iowa student at the time and thus had to drive through Iowa City ( a bambi hugging liberal town) with my bow slung around my neck. I did get a few looks! I never planned on what I would do if I did actually fill my tag. (1984)
I have actually slept in the timber for fear of oversleeping at home on opening morning.

Ever sinceTyler first started bowhunting/rifle huntingand at least two times in the spring every yearduring shed hunting... I will take a couple days off work to hunt or shed hunt. Tyler's signed excuse notesused to read... Tyler missed school for a field trip with me, quality time with dad, or a much needed father/son day. Tim
The teachers figured it out after a couple years and ask him how hunting or shed hunting went. Now I just write Tyler went hunting or shed hunting. The sad part is... he takes days off to hunt when I can't get out of work. [:@]
Our anniversary falls right during hunting season. I must have been in rut and apparentlynot thinking. [] Wife asks every year if I will spend the day with herand takeher out for a romanticanniversary dinner. I tell her sure...but she needs to dress warm andwe have to be careful not tocatch the cattails on fire whenshe lights the candles.

I actually told my wife we were not getting married during any hunting season (we were married on July 26) and I was having camo in the wedding.
I actually stuffed two does into the back of a 1993Eagle Talon two seasons ago.

I had a friend that was a dentist and when we would plan a hunt he would have his receptionist call the office and tell our secretary of my dentist appointment for tommorow. I walked in the office and say,"Geez I forgt all about that, I just can't go because of all the workload accumulateing". My boss man told me and would make me go, even though I protested. When we had a biopsy I could milk that out for most of hunting season.
