Suprised, but excited

[krism83]

So I was taken a little by suprise tonight. While my girlfriend and I were driving over to her dads new place we were talking about just some random crap and she stops mid sentance and looks at me and says "Can I go hunt Blacktail with you next year." Now my first response was "what??", and my second response was "of course you can." My girlfriend is outdoorsy when it comes to camping and riding dirtbikes and such, but not much for hunting....or at least I thought. I'm pretty stoked to get to spend the day with her out doing what I love to do next year, its exciting to get to share my hobbies with someone new. The only thing I told her was that she better not bag a hob BT before I do or there was going to be trouble,lol.

 That is awesome. My wife wanted to hunt, as well, so this year we did it. We rifle hunted (I have multi-season tag). She did no good but enjoyed it.

  She wanted to bowhunt, as she is a very good shot, but she hurt her shoulder two summers ago and still struggles.

I would rather stuff anchovies down my shorts and toss myself to the Sealions at Ballard Locks before I would drag a GF along hunting. Sorry, no manicure salon or Starbucks out here hotstuff.

Well I am quite sure there are a lot of females on here to include my wife, that would buy the anchovies for you. And actually kick you dead in the A$$ so you would not have to toss yourself

Yeah that.  Hunting camp is for guys and the occasional dancing girl.

Krism,

Good luck with all that, let her hunt her own pace and hunt how she wants to. Not the way you hunt. I almost messed it up when my wife first started hunting with me. I was pushing her way to hard. After teh first couple of times. It was great to look over to my left sleeping under a zodiac to keep out of the rain in Alaska with my wife there with me.

You got it, I don't have to drag anything along just so I can do it. No one said anything about family, I'm sure when my daughter is old enough, she may be right there with me. That will be her choice and time will tell.

I love to hunt with my wife and other females also,no problems here....

Hope you have fun!

Hmmm...I'd rather have a hunting camp with women that like to hunt than guys that just hang out and drink.

[dscubame]

I went out with my 10 year old daughter first time this year and it was awesome.  My hunting partners loved it also.  Dancing girls would be cool too.

Lucky man, congratulations!

I don't know what type of guys your used to hunting with, the guys I hunt with are either hunting or sleeping. There isnt much hanging out, as for the drinking. They have all year for that, it's nothing but business when the tags are in hand. That's why 10 percent of the hunters shoot 90 percent of the game. Their not playing grab ass in camp, their hunting.

Good to hear you've got a solid crew Hammer.  I mostly hunt solo because the few guys I've taken want to shoot everything that moves (squirrels with a .50 BMG, Really?), hide in the car from rain, show up late because hungover, and always want to go converse with ol JD.  I'd rather have female hunting partners that actually want to get out and hunt than most guys I've taken or even talked to about hunting.
