For the record,I don't shave anything but my face!!!! For those that do other areas I say " to each his own". I do have a shaving tradition though, every year once season starts I do not shave (my face) until I harvest an animal....There has been a few years that come December I was pretty scruffy!!!!!

I made an appointment weeks ago for the day before the opener. I'll get the shortest haircut of the year, then.

Well I didn't really shave my underarms with a razor, I just used the hair clippers and clipped it down a little....maybe I can still have half a man card?
Oh no, you still have to turn in the whole thing. There are only 3 types of men that do manscaping:

[ol][*]Swimmers[*]Bodybuilders[*]Metrosexuals[/ol]
There is no valid hunting excuse for manscaping. Cover your hair with clothing.





1.
manscaping

to groom a man. Shaving, waxing, cleaning up the superfluous fur. [/align]Hey, Jethro, isn't it time to do a little manscaping? [/align]

Hey, you can't take a guy's man card because he shaves his pits! I used to have some friends who were into bodybuilding and they shave everything and are perfectly norm.........

Uh, nevermind. Take the card. AND BURN IT!!

Just kidding. To each his own, but I can't imagine it makes that much difference (notscent control in general, but the extra hair). I know some of you are very dedicated to the scent control regime. The only people I know who "practice" it spend lots of money on fancy clothes, sprays and lotions. Then, they chug a cup of coffee or have a cigarette and head to the stand. Makes no sense to me.

For the record, I don't shave anything other than my face and once the weather cools I grow a beard and just trim it occasionally.

Seems like shaving your body would itch like crazy. I was scratching some chigger bites on my lower leg a couple of weeks ago with my knife and accidentally shaved some hair off and man it hurt like heck (not as bad as the chigger though )
