I was just trying to get some incite on what happens to a bows man when he find a woman who is interested in the same things that he is? If you have any thoughts please let me know.

Your archery tackle budget almost doubles for a time, but women tend to settle on what they like and stick with it. Us guys can't seem to stop looking at that next purchase. If you want your wife to get a deer, don't drop her off and then walk farther to your spot, you will simply scare away her deer. Next year i need to provide my wife a better set up. Our new area doesn't have the juniper cover she likes to work with. We added wilderness canoeing to our outdoor time, as well.
Run,run away. :scared: ..Just kidding. You would have the best hunting partner you could have. :thumbsup: :campfire:
Laddy...I have more bows than pegs, and just bought another.
Greywolf63, do dishes and laundry, and you will be able to spend more time with her at the range and in the woods. And maybe she won't scare away your deer when she drops you off at your hunting spot.
Killdeer :thumbsup: :campfire: :archer:
"Wildlife" can take on a whole new meaning. Seriously, it will make you rich beyond your wildest dreams. I hope you find that!
I can't say about bowhunting,but with flyfishing you can double your expenses.
You get a ton more fun and a much better experience having someone you care about as much as a spouse sharing something you're very passionate about,especially when they're just as passionate as you about it.
Makes vacations MUCH easier to arrange,as in,not worrying about,say going to the beach just to please her while you'd honestly rather be somewhere else.Most of our vacation time is now spent either in the Smoky Mountains or Montana............how can you beat that!?!?!
You will have the best time of your life. I know first hand. Shell and I have been best freinds and husband and wife for 14 years.<><
ya Im still lookin for her!!!! :wavey:
A woman that likes what you like, you can't get any luckyer than that. God gave me a women that likes what I like and it makes my life alot easyer. Whats not to love about a women who likes what you like unless she is a better shot than you. If you find a woman that likes what you like, you better grab her and hang on. I did.
All aspects of your life will get better. My wife, Laura, is so enthralled by archery and bowhunting that she doesn't wait for or need me to be around in order to get out into the woods or to the practice range. She truly loves the outdoors to begin with and the bowhunting/archery really make her feel like a participant rather than a spectator.
Who is HE....That your lookin at :goldtooth: :goldtooth:
My wife doesnt hunt but she will fight you for a fishing spot and I can tell you it is a wonderful experience to have her along to share the trip. I love watching her catch a fish it just lights up her whole face. I have tried the hunting thing but she just doesnt care for it. Lots of luck.

Thank you too all you guys who have responded to my post. I am a woman who is recently in a relationship with an avid bow man he is a long time member of this site and he is a very spiritual man when it comes to the ways of bow and arrow. I feel that he is native in spirit and that helps me because I'm a Native American woman who loves him very much and wants him to be happy. Thanks again.

Nobody shoots staighter than cupid :)
Let the sacred arrows fly!
She's a COOK...Lives in WY. Likes what I like...HUMMM :bigsmyl:
Don't Weaken Gal....Keep shootin till he hits the ground :biglaugh: :biglaugh:
a woman who loves bowhunting? that is a rare animal indeed.
Killdeer, I don't think I could afford to be married to you. My Robertson would not have the loving home it now has if my wife wasn't happy with just four bows.
You will end up with a bunch of little bows.

Been married 22 years to a women that love the outdoors. It makes life easy. Year before last we camped 29 days two or three days at the time hunting and fishing. Road the river at least twenty times this year fishing and hunting pigs. Life is Good and God is better.RC
!!! MARRIED !!!
Hello every one If you are wondering who the lucky man is? I have his ok to tell you who he is. It is Mr. Vic. And I have been blessed to have him to become a part of my life's path The Great Spirit has brought us together and our path together will be filled with all types of outdoor happenings. And no I will not be dropping him off at his hunting spot and either me going home or to another shot to hunt. We will be hunting together.this is his rule and mine as well. we like it better that way. And I wont be scaring away the deer I know how to walk in peace with mother earth.
thanks again for all the responses to my question.and if you have any more incite just let me know.

I admit that I read this and thought it was about a guy finding his new found Huntress, not that it was actually a Huntress finding her new found Hunter. Congrats to the both of you, it sounds like a perfect match! Best of luck and happy hunting!
Damn, I hope you and he come back to Iowa for a visit now and then. Best wishes.
He comes unstrung ?

Heehee! :biglaugh:
Hey neat! Glad to hear Mr. Vic has found love, or rather a love! I was thinking about asking Mr. Vic if he wanted to do a little rabbit hunting, but Wyoming is a bit far.
Me and my huntin buddy, 48 years and going strong.

Hey good for the both of you! :thumbsup: Especially happy for you Vic! :clapper:
Now his sport COSTS THREE TIMES AS MUCH AS BEFORE AND HE HAS TO LET HER HAVE ALL THE BEST SET-UPS! If she is left handed, then it costs ten times as much as before!

8th Dwarf is correct. All the good spots, stands and expenses are now negotiated and shared. Not a bad deal if you are a good negotiator. Here's what happened on my wife's first two hunts.

Life's never been better.
Yup...looks like some of the photos of my wife, Karen. Despite what I said above, she was my constant hunting partner for many years before a muscle disease laid her low.
She used to walk on her hands from one end of the house to the other to strengthen her shoulders to pull her 55 pound longbow. Now this is a woman who weighed 97 pounds and stood 5' 2" short. She backpack hunted for Dall Sheep with me in the Yukon, she Elk hunted, lion hunted, hunted Africa, and became a Senior Member of Pope and Young.
Fibromyalgia laid her low and darned near killed her. She's better now, but can't shoot a bow or hike hard. I miss her terribly in the woods, but no one ever proved to me that life was fair!
If you can find a woman who loves to bowhunt, hike, fish, and roam the hills, GO FOR IT! Life can never be better than that!
Try to find a right hander, though...this left hand stuff is costly!
Cheers from Too Short
:readit:
After the hunt, camp becomes much more interesting. :goldtooth:
Hey is there any girls out there that would be willing to give me some incite. I would appreciate it very much as well. Thanks to all the men who have shared there incite with me as well. keep them coming please.
Greywolf63
Cheryl.....welcome to the club.... :thumbsup:
There are many more women on here who are simply amazing hunters. I am sure they will chime in soon...
Bill...did you REALLY have to mention that in such a classy post? It ain't rocket science! Having someone gorgeous sharing the old sleeping bag is a whole lot better than having no one to share it!
Sheesh...
Too Short
Well Vic you've gone and done it now, rolled the dice and hit the jackpot!!
