You might be a hardcore bowhunter if.....
If you ever tried to hang a tree stand in your christmas tree
If you call your wife dear instead of honey
If you ever bought your wife tink's #69 instead of channel #5
If you have ever tried to score the racks on santa's deer
If you named your kids Fred, Matthew, Hoyt, or Martin
If you ever shot at the deer in your neighbor's christmas display
If ya have named yer vehicle somthin like "DoeForce 1"
If yer job interferes with tryin to book hog hunters
If yer primary concern bout landscapin is how it will look to the quail as opposed to how it will look to your wife
If ya own a PSE bow
If ya own a mathews an lay awake nights hopein ya can still buy a PSE
If ya'v ever snuck into work early so ya can hide yer comos before the boss gets in [less travel time when ya start complain bout the flu thet just hit ya 10 minutes after the boss arrives]
If the "wall paper" on yer computer is not only a hunting scene but has "BowSite" printed within it
If ya get more long distance calls then ya do local ones primarily from other bowhunters
If your long distance bill looks like a United States Bowhunter phone directory
If ya keep a "Will stop" target in yer livin room fer commercial breaks
If ya'v ever convinced yer soon to be wife thet an ELK hunt/Honymoon is a great idea
If ya lose every argument with yer wife after said Elk hunt/honymoon as soon as she pulls out the photo album containin the medical records fer afore mentioned festivity
If the glovebox of yer truck contains several packages of Broadheads, an allen wrench set, a shooting tab as well as a glove as well as a spare release, a tube of melted string wax, extra RS-Glo sight pins other spare bow parts... but yet ya can't find the registration when the officer asks for it cause its in the ashtray where it won't get string wax on it
If ya stapled yer wifes car awning together so it would not waste time carefully stitchin together target covers
If you keep your rattling horns in the cab of your truck year round.
If your children ask you not to hunt Santas Rein Deer durng the holidays..
If you and your wife get argue over wall paper for the bathroom. She whats flowers, you want Mossy Oak.
If every time its your turn to change your new baby girls diaper you also change her out of the pink baby out fit and put her in the Mossy Oak one.
If you dont own a computor and deliberatly sneak out of the house to surf the bowsite on the computor at work..
If, your Mother In Law refuses to ride while you're driving because you point at distant specks and yell," Deer".
If you've ever had to dig a BH out of Knotty Pine panelling in someone's family room.
If your kids as toddlers learned real quick to count to 9 because the Big'un over the mantle has 9 points. But they count,G-1,G-2.....
If you're called to school for a conference with the principal because your well behaved 12 yr old daughter called her ARA science teacher a "Damfool", and then so did you.
If your kids think Bluegill filets are what is served in heaven for breakfast, and butterfly chops for dinner...
If you've ever gone to the ER to get a Zwickey 2 blade sized gash in your left palm stitched up.

I admit I have been guilty of that one a time or two! I guess the only thing weird but in a good way was my wife didn't object! Oh BTW my little girl who is almost 2 is a big time daddys girl and I love every minute of it. I just hope that in 10 years she will still want to to everything with daddy.
