Keeping the wife happy while hunting

Lease a beach house September 15 til January 14th.

My retirement check on the first of the month is all it takes.

My wife has elk hunted more days than I have this year. I think she owes me a new fly rod.

My wife usually draws with me, or helps me pack out if she doesn't draw.. I plan my October hunts in WI around my annual work trip so I get that one to myself.

Most people worry about while your gone but it’s when your home that’s more important. When your home, be home. Be present and be helpful.

My wife is really good about letting me go do things. I have had people ask me how I am so “lucky?” I don’t go to the bar. I don’t play Xbox. I cook supper many nights. I do a lot of dishes. I take care of the yard. I take care of the vehicles. Either Saturday or Sunday, I make her breakfast. I even go grocery shopping with my wife a fair amount. I do things for and with her. That’s how I am so “lucky.”

I take the same approach.

We both make sure the other gets to do the things we want to do.
