Survey Question???
 

I just want to have a little fun with this. What is your wife's #1 complaint when it comes to your deer hunting. I believe my wife's #1 complaint is You possibly can't need that many deer stands (12), her #2 complaint is you say you always have such good spots why are you moving stands every summer? Let's hear some responses.

I'm a lucky man. My wife doesn't complain at all about any aspect of my hunting or about anything else for that matter.

I know it sounds too good to be true, but that's the way it is.

I too am lucky. My wife doesn't have any complaints about my hunting. I just can't get her to hunt. I guess the only complaint she has is I don't go squirrel hunting enough. She loves fried squirrel, as do I, but I just don't like walking around the woods shooting squirrels where I bow hunt.

My wife's #1 hunting complaint = "It's too cold!".

Because she's sitting beside me.

Around July when all the new episodes of the good hunting shows come on my wife complains about the number of hunting shows that take up our DVR space and she can't record any of her girl shows.

Also around mid November she will start to complain that I have been spending to much time in the woods, So I usually try to schedule a date night or two and that usually rights the ship.

Oh wow this is bringing back bad memories. Well before I left her at a truck stop j/k. The season would have just started and I would get the whole "you're going out again! You just went out last weekend". She knew far in advance before we got married the hunting season would be like this. I guess she figured since we were married she could change me. She thought wrong. The last thing she saw of me was the word UHAUL. I even bought her a bow and got her shooting. Got her her first deer even. Oh well live and learn. If you hunt a lot. Try and find one that enjoys the same hunting passion. Pretty much like finding a needle in a hay stack.

It's mostly just the phone calls every night when I'm away during the season asking if I got one. She even bought me the "We Interrupt this Marriage for Deer Season" sign that's hanging in the man cave.

1.) Didnt you just buy one of those? (i.e. Stand, Camera, Arrows)

2.) Quit making so much noise at 4:30 am on a Saturday!

lol love em... I GOT RID OF MINE! --- You don't need another bow, you bought a new Hoyt last year! Im like uhmmm excuse me, you just bought a new purse. Why do you buy so much camo? uhmm, well why do you buy new clothes all the time. lol

Me, too, LC. My wife is amazing. I could drain the account at Bass Pro tonight and she wouldn't say boo. She is my best friend, and as such, we encourage each other in what each other likes to do.

I thank God every day. She is miles beyond what I had hoped for, and darn good looking, too.

She just complains that it cuts into our sex life..... ;)

I told my current wife that I was big into hunting when we first met and it was not going to change, just ask my ex. Hunting before sex!!! I can get sex anywhere, anytime. She starts complaining about me getting stuff and now that it is hunting sesaon beginning, I just tell her to go to her girlfriends house and I will get back hold of her bout end of Jan when everything is over. And yes, she plays for both teams!!! :barmy:

I just tell the BI%$H to shut up!!!!

I don't get out of the house quick enough.

"More hunting gear, how much did that cost, I thought this meat was supposed to be free!!!"
:busted: LOL

No real complaints. Sometimes she wants me to do something for her birthday but hunting gets in the way. She shouldn't have been born in late October.

In the beginning my wife used to complain about me going hunting all time. Now she does not mind, her only complaint now is that I am tired all the time.

All and all she is very supportive. I guess I am one of the lucky ones!

I'll ditto Razor's experience and luck. Early on she'd say things like: "you went hunting last Saturday, do you need to go again so soon?"
But she adapted and is very supportive (42 yrs of marriage). My (hooked-on-fishing) brother said to her after I killed a very nice buck several years ago: I guess he won't hunt so much now; and she replied - if you caught a big bass would you stop fishing? lol
