All I can guess is most of you boys are MUCH, MUCH, MUCH younger than I am, not married (or don't care about being), and/or just the most stubborn hardcore sonofaguns on planet earth!

Admittedly, I've just lost most of my interest in turkey hunting, but good Lord the wind was blowing 20+ here sustained this morning. I wouldn't have even considered going. Being on this site has given me a new perspective on just how selfishly I wasted most of my life worshiping hunting. Seriously, someone said it was their anniversary and they still got up and went in these lousy conditions!!! Man, I done got old and soft

Turkey hunting is my passion, deer hunting not so much. I am the one who said it was my anniversary, I hunted till 12:30 then drove home 2 hours and met her for dinner. Heck she knows that their is a lot worse places to be than out in the woods chasing turkeys. I was 3 hours late for our wedding, all of our families were there waiting on me to get out of the woods, my grandmother got up and took the microphone from the band and told everyone to calm down, that I must have one gobbling and can’t leave em. She also told my wife that if she wanted someone to stay home during turkey season that she better just marry someone else

I wasn’t selfish, I paid for everything. It was kinda of a test of her family could put up with my family and vice versa then it had to be good. I must have did something right, been married now 17 years
