Default She's A Keeper!!

My wife likes to come hunting with me. She can't kill an animal but she is more than willing to sit in the cold, help me drag and cut and wrap. In the picture she is packing my rifle. I have the pack.

As a married man it does not matter to me, but I know there are many members on the Board dying to ask the QUESTION but are too timid to do so.

So on behalf of the single members on the Board,

Does She Have a Single Sister????

My wifey is the same.
She will push bush, help track, pack out meat, skin, debone, and then there is grinding, making sausage, jerky etc.

Everything except pull the trigger.

She did kill a mouse once....

Just her preference, and she loves hunting, the great outdoors and all the whole filling the freezer deal.

At least we can spend time in the field together. ( because she can pack a lot .. Lol )

My buddy had a wife that wanted to come hunting with us. Same thing she had no intentions of ever shooting game she just wanted to be along for the ride. She didn’t find it very funny when we gave her brown overalls and a hat with deer antlers on it when she was about to head into the bush for the first time.

I don’t usually post much on here but I have to in this case. My wife, she loves to come hunting with me. I love having her come along. Her hearing is way better than mine. My eyesight is better than hers when it comes to spotting animals in the bush. She does her best to be quiet. When I shoot a animal she looks away. When it’s time to field dress she holds a leg or helps flip the animal over. She more than pulls her weight when it comes to getting a animal out. Never complains about the miles we walk. Doesn’t want to shoot a animal so there’s no competition. She loves wild meat. It’s all we eat! No she’s not my first wife but she’s my last.

Are they related?...

My wife is the same way. She is a great leg holder, loves wild meat, makes great wild meat recipes, and helps with cutting/wrapping.

She has never shot anything, nor will she ever will.

I know after 41 years she is a keeper!...

My wife went Grizzly hunting with me and then held the horses, while I dealt with the bear. Beat that.

I doubt they are. None of her sisters are like her. And none of their husbands hunt as much as I do. To all the others. Keep looking they’re out there! Lol

Yes I’m very lucky. She’s been sheep hunting with me. Been with me a lot! Only complaint was she didn’t like late season November hunting. Too cold and too much snow.

My wife pushes bush, rides deep into the hills, will kill a buck but doesn't want a moose or elk. I gut & skin, she'll butcher & freeze the meat if we're short family.

She's a gopher Eliminator, good shot & a great hunting partner!
