Zim

Well I hate to jinx things, but had to share my new outdoors girlfriend I'm dating. Been doing the internet dating thing for 3 months now. Been through a few, but settled on this Yahoo Personals gem. She actually winked me for starters. Been on about 8 dates so far. Saturday I made one of her dreams come true by taking her on her first bowhunt. Seems her previous dates were city slickers. Drove down to our hunting area Friday night and camped out primitive, no complaints. Got up at 4 AM and rode our bikes 4+ miles to standsite. Hunted in the sweltering heat 3 hours, saw nothing. Got down and spent the next 5 hours scouting through the thickest, nastiest briars and weed thickets in 90 degree heat. She had to pick out about 500 burs. No complaints, just smiles. Located as few spots and trimmed branches another hour. Climbed a bunker & fell asleep in the sun for 2 hours. Got up and went wading in a creek for 1/2 hour. Climbed back up in the stand for another 1 1/2 hours of nothing. Biked back 4 miles. No complaints. She was thrilled I took her and wants to return when the weather cools.

On previous dates we hiked Starved Rock, all of it, biked for 4 1/2 hours (1st date), shot a 3D tournament at Chicago Bowhunters (she wanted me to shoot a 2nd round), and shot my muzzleloader, loaded it herself. She is also now shopping for her first bow.

I think it would be impossible to trade up on this one.

My wife doesn't mind that I hunt/fish/golf..she just wants no part of it herself.

Congrats!

She calls me her "big buck".

Oh by the way, way to go!!
