Default Addicted to Bow Hunting



You put on a safety harness to change the light bulb.
You have a camo tent over your bed.
You have winches hooked to every vehicle including your kid’s tricycle.
Your vehicle horn is an elk call.
Your new set of glasses comes with range finder built in.
You can only sit at one half of your dining table because the other half has 6 bitzenburger fletching jigs mounted to it.
Your night lights are the deer eyes in your mounts
Your clothes hangers are bent arrows
When you talk about your honeymoon it’s vague, we had a good time seen some sights, when you talk about your hunting trip its in detail. Best time of your life, what time you woke up, ate, got to the tree stand, how many deer you seen, who you went with, the weather conditions etc etc etc, Honeymoon conversation over in 15 minutes, hunting trip still talking about it.
When you can't make it through the day without hearing the words Buck, Arrow, or bow at least once.
When your wife is trying to get your attention and says dear, you quickly grab bow and binos.
You put at tree stand in your Christmas tree.
Your kids warn Santa not to land on your roof.
You go around the neighborhood shooting the Christmas deer decorations.
You have a hard time getting up at 6 am to go to work but you are up dressed and out the door at 3 am to hunt.
You’re afraid of heights but will sit in a tree stand 20 feet off the ground.
Your board sitting around for more than and hour but you will sit in a tree stand all day.
You won’t take your wife out to eat because it is only 50 degrees outside but you will go hunting at -10.
You start measuring everything in yardage.
You put a tree stand on the chimney for practice in the off season.
You strategically set up the furniture for best view out the windows.
You have an 8 pt buck head in the bathroom for a towel rack
You totally understand this 70#@29DL306fps350g/w80gBH.and consider it a complete sentence yet it takes you 3 times per page of reading to figure out how to hook up the dvd player to the tv.
You get married in the off season so you don’t have the anniversary during the season.
You make sure that your kids are born in the off season for the same reason above.
You don’t know your neighbors but the local archery shop calls you by first name.
Your house looks like a museum of wildlife.
You have more magazines dealing with hunting then the local book store.
People come to visit you and ask if you’re a taxidermy.
These are just a few of the better ones I have come up with or have read from another sight I am sure you can add to them, But at least you may get a chuckle out of them, Especially if you find your guilty of a lot of them.

I think being addicted to bow hunting is better than being addicted to anything else.

When you constantly reach inward on your release hand and expect to feel the release there......You might be addicted to bowhunting.
