Default You know you are addicted to hunting when...

I bought my 4 yr old her first camo suit, not to mention the 3 camo bibs she has outgrown!

Everytime im driving in the early evening my wife yells at me to drive the speedlimit, but Im too busy looking out in the fields!

I cleaned my truck out and found 6 3in 00B, 7 Nitro Turkey shells, a handful of field points, and my scope caps!

Oh, did I mention the two deer stands in my back yard for practicing my bow shooting?

I may have overdone it when I bought my wife a video camera for her birthday, and she hasnt seen it once! Its in my hunting backpack!

LMAO, yeah I was just cleaning my truck out too. I have a box of turkey loads, I pulled out a brand new Snyper, a used Snyper and a field point from my center console but I don't need all that nor anything else to tell me I'm addicted to hunting.

Both doors in my druck have scentblocker sprays, camo jacket behind the fromt seat, the bed has a climber still in it and I keep forgetting to take the 2004 green and yellow pins we used to get at the check in stations from my visor.

You really know you love hunting when you teach your kids to track deer as a science lesson for homeschooling. I showed my kid how to find deer tracks once. My oldest son shocked my wife when he found some tracks at a friend's house. He followed the tracks back to where the deer crossed a steam in the woods behind the house. My wife thought he had lost the tracks a couple of times but he picked up a stick and moved some leaves around to found the tracks again. He would have kept tracking the deer but my wife stopped him at the stream. Another example is one of my youngest daughter's favorite books is"The Field Guide To Animal Tracks by Olaus J. Murie."My kids love to use my deer and turkey calls.
