You might be a hunter if, you can't hear anything your wife says.
But no matter where you are in the house, while your tv is on The Outdoor channel.
There is a turkeysound, no matter how small.
You can hear it as clear as a bell.

Then you are a hunter.

You might be a hunter if your cell ring tone is a duck quacking, or aturkey hen, followed by a gobble, and followed by a shot.


You might be a hunter if you and your groomsmen wear hunters orange tuxedos at your wedding.

if you can remember down to the very last detail every aspect of every deer you have killed (sound,temp,what you were wearing, time, date, how many deer were present, how many squirles were around, wind direction, you get the point) over the last 25 years, but some how manage to forget your anniversary or wife;s bDay every year!!

You see a squirrel (rabbit, deer, etc.) flattened on the road and think "what a waste of a good meal".

... you can spot a shed laying in the woods, 100yds from the road, while doing 65 MPH .

RE: You might be a hunter if...
 
if every fall and winter you wife complains cause the house smells like HS Dirt Cover Scent.

if the biggest figth you have with your wife is because she washed your hunting clothes in Tide instead of Scentlok.

if your friends can tell hunting season is coming up by the clothes you wear.

if you find yourself checking the HNI forums everyday just to see what has been shot.

You might be a hunter if......

you spend your last couple dollars on a deer tag instead of your utility bills.

you see hunting seasons as irreplaceable, but not your wife.

every cup holder and glove box in your vehicle is full of empty and loaded bullet brass and shotgun shells.

you have more documented paperwork on file for your hunting dogs than you do for your kids.

you do not attend weddings or funerals during hunting season, so you warn friends and family to plan accordingly.

you have about 100dollars into your living room furniture, but over 10,000 into the mounts on the wall.

you have automatic alert emails sent to you from your state game agency for rule changes and news, and read those before opening anything to do with work.

you reference the past based on what you killed in the fall of that year. "96' hmm you mean the year of my 6x6 whitetail."

You spend more on your hunting clothes than your church clothes, or consider the woods your church and skip them all together.

you get lost in shopping malls, but never get lost in the woods even though you sometimes try.

when you hear someone tell their horror story of a bear coming in their camp in the middle of the night you think "lucky, why don'tbears ever come into my camp, I even leave food out on purpose, save me all that hiking and glassing".

you run to-wards the sounds of wild animals while others flee.

your attitude on weather is, the worse it is the less competition there will be.

Your local fish and game officer knows you by name.

you spend a couple hours out of your work day on this site, hoping to someday post enough to no longer be a Fork Horn.

You ruin your sisters outdoor wedding because you and your buddies turned hounds loose on a bear just before the ceremony and people can't hear the vows over the sound of baying hounds on the mountain.

You might be a (deer) hunter if, when you hear about several wolves being shot in Wisconsin this past year, you think to yourself....'oh darn, now that's a shame' (Ha!)
