So the wife comes home from school this afternoon and opens the fridge. she then turns around, gives me that "are you for real?" look and says.......

"You know you live with someone who hunts when you open your refrigerator and the first thing you see is a bottle of "DOE URINE"....

I thought it was quite humorous so i turned around looked her square in the face and said, "better here then in the bedroom right?" needless to say she didn't find that as amusing as i did.

so with that, i figured we could all have some fun with this. lets see what everyone else has to say about "You know you're a hunter when......."

and yes, i am bored as can be. and today, tomorrow and the drive to the land are going to be the longest of my life it feels like. this weekend will be the first time out this year so i figured why not kill some time and have some fun while we are at it

you know your a hunter when you have a 24 hour period like this.....

1. all your thinking about is deer season while riding on the train home from grand central

2. and then driving home from the train station your behind someone the whole way who then pulls into their driveway and there are a bunch of deer on the side of his house and looks like a ton of acreage.

3. The next morning at the train station, you're figuring out how to ask that guy for permission to hunt his land without being creepy when saying you followed him home and noticed the deer on his property and then used google maps to look at his land. lol

You know you are a hunter when what you choose to shoot and how you go about doing it brings you great satisfaction. And that satisfaction should be carried from the field to the table.

You know you are NOT a hunter when you obsess over how and what the guy on the next property is doing more than you do about your own hunting.
