is it wise to encourage your girlfriend or wife to get interested in hunting ?


Recommended Posts


Just depends on the woman doesn't it - some would just be a pain in the arse cos they don't really want to be there and some will be brilliant. I've had lots of girlfriends i wouldn't have bothered suggesting it to as they probably wouldn't have really enjoyed it and only come a long cos i'd asked - as a result they would fidget, moan and generally take all the fun out of it by just looking miserable.

 

Started dating a new girl in may and a while ago i was off out setting some snares and she asked if she could come so i let her come a long and set a few herself. She even came out the next morning to check the wires and was delighted with her first rabbit! Since this i've had her out with the air rifle, taken her out with the terrier and next shes coming out with the ferret.

 

So yer - depends on the woman / man.

My wife enjoys it on the odd occasion, she'll even go lamping on her own when the mood takes her and bushes whenever she takes the dogs out. She certainly dont want to be out as often as I am, same as im not keen on horseriding everyday but its good every now and again whereas she lives for it. If she wasnt into hunting I dont think she would be able to put up with me or understand why I do it and that would lead to arguements. It all depends on the people involved I reckon, just do what works for you!

Look its a win win for us men.

1) We know where she is and not doing your mate while your out .

2)We all know men are good at things but most off the times it takes a womens touch.

3)Only thing bad about this is the dinner not on the table when yea get in but if yea stop off on the way home she cant do your head in about never taking her out for something till eat :clapper: :clapper:

4)If yea bring them hunting then they wont want till go to the bar with yea.

5)The best one is if the nights lamping is shit or ferreting not going good yea can always jump into the car or hedge till pass the time know what l mean lol :clapper:
