    How many married folks consider hunting / fishing as time apart or with?

    It occurs to me that people who got into hunting later in life, as I did, find themselves sometimes at odds with their spouses if they consider it a way to enjoy private time AWAY from their spouses, or is it the majority of folks finding that it brings new dimensions to the relationship?

    It wont work for everyone, I have managed

    to get my wife involved! She had tried hunting

    a long time ago but never successful and I built her a blind, airtight to some degree
    and she was able to bowkill her first deer
    last year! I sometimes wish I had not made

    it that easy for her but she is hooked.I feel

    it a shame to go through this life, never having the opportunity to experiance the field.

    She has went turkey hunting with me as well

    but that was too rugged for her and she did not

    like the idea of the bears we have lol!

    I guess I should feel lucky that I don't get the evil eye as I go out the door. She doesn't hunt like I don't go to pampered chef parties. Viva le differance, eh?

    I consider it both time away and time apart. I love hunting but of course I go with my husband. Once we get to one of our camps, we go our diff ways. That is the time I love! I am all alone, no husband, no kids. It is my time. Just sitting there in the woods with only the sound of nature and waiting for my big buck. But as the sun sets we are back together again and we enjoy the evening with beers around the fire. But it just could be the beers! LOL
