My gorgeous wife knows my passion for bowhunting and turkey hunting for that matter and supports me. She knows not to plan anything the month of Oct/Nov and mornings come Spring gobbler. She never complains, she listens tho she doesn't care, she listens. She's a keeper.

RE: Hunting and the Women
Hunting is my only vise. I watch the New England Patriots when I can...especially when we are in the playoffs and in the Big Bowl. I don't drink, smoke, hang out with buds or have many other things to occupy my time...yea right...But she knows I like to hunt and I spend a lot of time scouting, setting up for hunting and hunting. She is pretty much tolerable of it all. I do put hunting down on the priority list when other things (life) come up. My dream is to be able to hunt all the seasons to death untill I get something but that has never happened. I took her out squirrel hunting not to long after we got married. I vowed then that I would NEVER take her hunting again...and I haven't. She listens to my scouting and hunting stories and that is fine with me.
Still happily married after 29 years.

I consider myself to be pretty lucky, I found a beautiful girl who was already an archery champion and hunter when we meet. This will be our first hunting season together and she is just as excited as I am for opening day. No more fighting about spending time in the woods. We spent this past weekend scouting and getting the tree stands ready down at camp. Couldn't be happier, especially since my last relationship was with an anti-hunter.

My wife will go rifle hunting and squirrel hunting with me. Did want to target shoot a bow but we never had the extra cash to buy her one. Then after thebirth of our first child last year all that kinda fell aside. Might be able to talk her into going a day or so of rifle season this year.
So far hasn't given me too much grief about going.

RE: Hunting and the Women
My wife and I have been together for 7 years and married 4 years. She does not hunt. She loves shooting clays though. She doesn't like me hunting everyday of the week but we compromise pretty good on the weekends. She knows when the rut is and that we don't schedule stuff for that time of year. I have been blessed with a great wife and we now have an 8 month old daughter. My daughter starts dancing every time she hears a turkey call so hopefully that is a good thing. I am going to try and get my daughter to like hunting instead of shopping. Will have to see in the future how that all pans out.
