Promises you've mad to get more huntin time!!!

[Jim Sr.]

What are some of the things that you have promised your significant others during the waterfowl season so you can go out & play (hunt)?
Doesn't have to be a massive compilation or in any certain order of importance, just the facts people & pics are optional.
I'll go first.

Honey, I'll trim it when the season ends, please bear with me on this, you don't want me to end up gettin sick do ya?







Honey, when duck season is over I'll replace the threshold on the back door, this towel works perfectly for now.

now that was a legit ginger beard till you hacked it off.

the only one that has ever worked for me was:

" Honey I can promise you that I will be one petulant, grumpy-ass, SOB if I don't go hunting soon." she knows I keep my promises and usually can't wait to get rid of me.

[Jim Sr.]

It sure does look & feel good while still attatched but the truth is that what lies beneath is just age. Chris Cringle I was & now i'm turning into ole Santa!!!

Grumpyness will sure get anyone out of the house!!!

HOLY CRAP JIM..............You are one ugly mug under all that hair 



The only promise I made to the old lady, was that I would sleep in with her on the weekends once the season is over, and by golly, I am keeping my promise....

ha ha ha that beard was awesome! too bad it had to go!   

[Wtrfowlr62]

my girlfriend hunts, the girl grew up in a family thats hunt or kick rocks. her dad was beyond a die hard waterfowl hunter and elk hunter (or bacialy anything he can buy a tag and fill). I'm lucky to say she knows when its hunting season the "priorites" change, shes just grown up to that lol.

As jim said earlier also^^ being a little grumpy to shoo ya out the door has is "risks and rewards" also; get to go hunting cause she wants nothing to do with ya, but when you get back you gotta deal with the wrath thats been brewing all day

[Sitka_Blacktail]

I promise I'll bring home some great meat to eat!

Hunting is so ingrained in me that I wouldn't have a woman who didn't understand that when it's hunting season, I'll be hunting.  It was a prerequisite to even dating a gal when I was younger.  Never met a woman yet I'd give up hunting for.

I'll let you go tomorrow ... since my wife has been biten by the hunting bug..

[seth30]

To split the firewood that has accumated after I dropped 4 trees

[pianoman9701]

I don't have to make any. She doesn't ever interfere with my hunting.

[kyle78]

My wife knows that when hunting season comes around, especially birds, she becomes a widow on the weekends. After the season is done I have to do all the girly things with her again, until it's turkey season.

The best is when I showed up at home with a brand new Dyson vaccum for her before leaving for a trip to Idaho

That would remain unused until I got back from hunting! 

[kyle78]

I don't think I would ever get to hunt if I did that.

[Skagit_Hunter]

I don't promise a thing. She was for warned before we got married.... Been going good for 24 yrs so why change a thing.

Although Sunday she said .....Isn't it the last day today....ERRRR UMMMM yes it is.
Then she said..... have fun all day.
I will be making the list while your gone

Bad timing.... should have got it for your anniversary.... Then you would have all the time in the world to hunt    

[Special T]

I think you have to train them early on... I have a buddy that for a Loooong time only had girlfriends 9 months out of the year max! As soon as bow hunting ended, there was a brief break, then waterfowl started... After 2 weeks of that 90% of them were GONE! Kinda reminds me of that fishing song "You never know what you'll catch" The guy goes fishing and he knows the house will be empty when he gets home, and don't care... 

My wife calls it being a hunting widow..

[h2ofowlr]

My wife is used to it.  She did get on my case a little more this year.  At least I don't stay out all day long hunting then fishing afterwards like I used to.  I cut back on the fishing, so she has been happy.

[ghosthunter]

After 28 years she missed me in the beginning a little when the kids were home. Now she cooks some ready to heat meals for me,pats me on the butt and says dont come home early. I start with muzzy elk in 1st Oct. than right into modern deer befroe I get back home and start duck.

I think it is a vacation forher too.

[rasbo]

I promise her she can visit her folks till the season is over,,holy crap I forgot to pick her up, ,,,never have had to say anything or promise,been married to a keeper for 35yrs pretty lucky man

[Jim Sr.]

Yeah I know Pete you don't have to remind me. It'll start growing again in September.

I even took her to Hawaii for 10 days in October because the hunting sucked here!!!!!!!!!!

[Hunting7mm]

I have to replace our back deck and enlarge the new one!!!!!  Plus my wife wants me to fall our pine trees in front of our house... 

[BLKBEARKLR]

I just leave her the debit card and tell her to make sure I have enough gas to get home.
