| > I have 3.5 weeks of vacation to start scheduling.
bob, have you told the wifey-poo about this? I have to do hard
bargaining for every day of holiday time I'm allowed to spend
on such "useless" activities! :-}

| You said the right thing, "Have you TOLD wifey-poo yet?" Yes, I did
tell wifey-poo. Seems EVERY vacation I have taken year to date has
been to see the inlaws. So I told her that I need some BOB time, and
it is going to be around hunting.
Of course, the nice guy that I am, I told her when I am gone, she can
go shopping. Just pay cash, no credit cards.
I am still in the first year of marriage, so we are in the phase of
"how long the leash is" mode. I keep pulling for more leash, and she
keeps giving. Same goes for her. It seems to be a real good marriage.
Back to hunting though, it's that male bonding thing.
72 days until bow season! >>>>------------->

| Just wait, Every year gets a little harder to get out hunting. You
start with 3.5 weeks and end up with a couple of weekends.

| 1167.4 | N.H. opening dates | SALEM::MACGREGOR | | Mon Jul 13 1992 09:09 | 6 |
| N.H. Deer season starts for Firearms on Nov. 11th, Bow starts Sept.
12th I believe and Bear starts the same as it has in the past, Sept.
1st. Although if Bow season starts onb Sept. 19th I'll be getting
married that day and there goes one of my opening days this year. But
it will be worth it.

| I laugh at your note. Read note 933. I was once in your shoes young
man. Take all the ribbing. I will think about you as I am on my stand
opening morning of the 19th.
you say ,"but it will be worth it." Will it? Does your future wife
know about you and hunting? My wife is now trying the sobbing act of
,"Oh honey, please don't leave me for the weekend and kill bambi."
I tell her, "You knew I was a hunter before we got married, so don't
try and change this on me now, it won't work."
best of luck

| 1167.6 | only time will tell | SALEM::MACGREGOR | | Mon Jul 13 1992 15:37 | 10 |
| So far she doesn't have a problem with it, Bob. Everyone says wait
awhile and she will change. I hope not. I don't think she will either.
Only time will tell I guess. I know I lived a woman for awhile before
and she once gave me an ultimatum, her or hunting. I went hunting and
didn't see her anymore. This seems just the opposite. As a matter of
fact I almost have her talked into getting her hunting license. She
says she doesn't think she could kill something, except birds. I don't
know what the difference would be. But I know we are both happy. I'll
get my hunting time in. One way or another.

| 1167.7 | who said i was smart anyways?-not me | SALEM::MACGREGOR | | Mon Jul 13 1992 15:43 | 9 |
| Bob, by the way I am not all that young anymore. Besides she keeps
telling me I had better fill the freezer. Good Luck on opening morning.
By the way whats the weather like down there about that time? I usually
don't hunt that part of bow season up here because it gets too hot and
all the flies drive me out of the woods anyways by 7:00am. I usually
wait until the beginning of October. And it was my choice to be married
on that date. But I never sauid I was smart.

| Bret, the way it looks this year, it will be hot as hell opening
weekend. Battling ticks, spiders, bugs, and possible snakes. Who
knows, maybe god will shine on bowhunting and cool it down into the
70's. Regardless, I will be in my stand.

| 1167.9 | They don't always change for the worse... | CHRLIE::HUSTON | | Mon Jul 13 1992 17:24 | 24 |

Bret,
They don't all change, I married someone who never hunted, didn't like
guns. But she knew what hunting meant to me. She has never balked
when I went away for weekends for the "family" type hunts wiht
father, uncle's cousins etc. And never gives me any trouble for bird
hunting. Actually she wants to take the hunter safety course and go
duck/bird hunting with me. She doesn't know if she can be quick
enough to shoot a bird (she was quite impressed with the speed of
a partridge flush last fall).
She has gone from someone who asked that I not clean the gun in the
same room to someone who wants to hunt and has been taught to shoot.
She even bought me a gun for my birthday/anniversayr last year.
That helped alot since she did all the shopping for it with a friend
of mine. She learned that a gun is a machine and she was taught how
it works. When she gave it to me she put it together for me (its
a pump shotgun), I was shocked to say the least.
Good luck on the marrige.

| 1167.10 | time to plan...! | MKFSA::HOLLEN | | Tue Jul 14 1992 11:34 | 8 |
| 2 questions:
Anyone know the exact dates of the start of Pennsylvania's bow season
and the start of the New Hampshire muzzleloader season?
Thanks in advance for any information!
Joe

| 1167.11 | ????????? | SALEM::MACGREGOR | | Tue Jul 14 1992 11:51 | 3 |
| I think the N.H. muzzleloader season starts on Oct. 31. It's usually 10
days or 2 saturdays before the start of the regular firearms season.

| Didn't mean it in a sexist kind of way. It's just nice to talk guy
stuff over the fire with a beer in hand. Talk about hunting.
Instead of hearing," Honey, what do you think of the new drapes? or
flowers? Or you need to do this, and that? I want new furniture!
We need new carpeting."
It's like a weekend pass to go hunting. Not mocking my wife in any
way, I love her. BUT, it's funny how her wants are supposed to be our
wants. A drape is a drape, furniture is furniture, flowers are
flowers.
Regardless, that's great that you hunt with your hubby. I just could
not take my wife hunting. Everyone needs there space, and hunting is
where I get mine.

| re: Bob
God knows we don't sit in the same tree stand or anything, we go our
seperate ways in the woods, unless I'm asking him to teach me something
new. (He introduced me to this rather addictive sport)
A good example is that I don't turkey hunt, he does, so I'm glad to see
him go with his buddies during that season for a weekend or so (having
the whole house to myself)
But during Whitetail season, (bow and firearm) he gets to go before and
after work and I don't, I only get to go on weekends or the days I take
off to hunt. So he does have time to enjoy the sport without me.
RE: Mike
Yes, I have an older sister, but she's happily married with three small
children and isn't real keen on hunting, although she does like the
outdoors.

Rathole alert!
We need more women hunters IMHO! Not because we need more
hunters in the field - there are just the few we could do
without :-(, but because if more women got involved in the
sport it would help convince all the other gals that hunting
is a very healthy, environmentally sound, educational and
in general FUN sport. Women votes will count for a lot, as
we face increasing pressure from the anti hunting activists!
Besides, women are probably not too proud to admit they need
education (as in hunters safety ed. ) and are likely to be
more careful in the field (I know of few guys who could do
*a lot* better in that respect).
If more women hunted, maybe they could gang up -
either alone or with their male appendices... After all,
hunting is very much a social sport and women do enjoy to
gossip about other things than guys - fact of life!
So, we need more like you Christine! Both on the basic level,
as well as "role models" - Kathy Etling springs to mind here.
Rathole terminator.

| EH GADZ!!!!!! Earl just pointed out to me that the "Bonus week" of
hunting in the Northern zone of Georgia does not end on January 3, it
ends on January 1.
That means that the either sex bonus week will commence on December 26
(half hour before sun up) and end on January 1, (half hour after
sundown).
Well you know where I will be. Read this Red!!!! Realize that you
will actually have a weekend at home, unless your like Earl and can
hunt the southern zone, which ends on January 10, half hour after
sundown.
Bob
