What does being married have to do with anything? I'm married as well. I just find your responses to be colorful, and you a person open to a little good-natured ribbing. Nothing more and no harm meant.

So far (I'm still the newbie hunter) I have hunted with my husband every time. I think I would like to try on my own a few times, just for the peace and quiet.

He may have issue with you hunting on your own and becoming a more skilled hunter than him?!

There is 5-6 of us in the house I stay at and we're spread out when we hunt. But, we all know where everyone is at, what time to expect everyone in, etc. If one of us is late back to the house by 1/2 hour a few of us will drive to where they areat just to make sure they are OK or need help dragging a deer out. Cell phones or 2 way radios always on, on vibrator mode. We try to be as safe as we can.

RE: hunting partners?
when it comes to deer hunting I hunt alone. turkey or birds i sometimes hunt with a partner. i actually prefer hunting alone. this way I dont have to worry about what the other person is doing. i like to do things my way when i hunt. plus i like being out in the woods by myself...gives me time to reflect and what not.

I hunted deer alone more when I was younger than I do now...I have a couple of buddies I have hunted with for 20 years or better, and 2 brothers that I hunt with as well...Heck, when I go I need someone to drag out and clean the deer!!!
Turkeys and squirrels, I really like to hunt alone....I've had too many guys spook turkey before the shot.....

RE: hunting partners?
I have a good friend that I have hunted with for over 30 years. We hunt together when ever we can. That doesn't keep either of us from going alone when the other can't make it. Also, we both try to take our kids whenever they want to go, so we are cultivating new hunting partners. I like to have someone else along as I get older....it makes the drag a whole lot easier for both of us and the shared memories are priceless.
