Never Drank... true story.

And Absolutly no problem with those who do responsibly, even around me. I just never wanted too.

I drink at camp. Heck I'm having a cold one now and I'm off early to sit in my stand. I also just got off work and am winding down. A few doesn't hurt. Enough to give you a hangover does. I never hunt hungover or drunk, just isn't me.

I am a one or two beerocasional drinker year round, whether it is hunting season or not. I have never felt the urgeto get snockered norhave I ever understood the appeal some have to lose control of their facilities.

It's tradition.

Especially after my grandpa passed, a few years back.

He'd always buy a gallon (literally) of the cheapest wine we could find. His, "heart Medicine".

Now the family (hunting party) drinks some heart medacine, and a few mich goldens the night before a hunt:)

Like many of you I can pound it with the best of them. But that has its place and time. There is little no mixing for me. I’ve left a lot of places I was having a real good time at because I had to get up and hunt the next morning.
One time though, I got caught up in it all and made it a long night with an early morning. That was a rough one to wake up for, but wouldn’t you know it I ended up shooting a buck that morning. That’ll take away a hangover real quick. I never understood the drinking mentality when guys went away for hunting camp.

I don't need to read any further downthe page to find something better to say than this. I agree to the letter. It's damn scary. I look forward to meeting you (again) this year Matt.

I gave up the every weekend pound down years ago. If I feel like it I can have a few cold ones(a few is 12 right)or a Captain or 10. I mean 2.
LOL!!!!:D

RE: Drinking & Hunting
 

My dad, my uncle and my 2 sons are the only people I hunt with. None of them drink, so drinking at deer camp has never been a tradition for us. I rarely drink anymore, but still enjoy a beer(or 12)with the guys once in a while.

RE: Drinking & Hunting
 

I like beer, but as said before " a time and a place". I drink after I am done for the day, but I could not hunt after doing so. I enjoy just being in the woods, dont likeanything that wouldmess up that experience.
