Default Is hunting your vacation?

Do you consider a hunting trip to be a vacation? I think alot of people consider it a vacation, though I think few of us would equate a hunting trip to be that of a relaxing on the beach type. I consider it more work....than a vacation. Your thoughts?

It's my vacation, but not the families...I do vacations with them as well but everyone knows that hunting is dads time to chill out and recharge. It may be work hunting but it is the best work I have ever done...

Vacation is not the right word to use for the grueling DYS hunt I go on.

Hell yeah its a vacation. Hate the cites to vacation too. Dont really like the ocean beaches. I work out year long in order to be in shape for my favorite sport, so I can enjoy the mountains. Instead of the mountains enjoying me. I work hard all year at my jobso I can takethe fall seasonoff to hunt depending whatwe draw. Basically it boils down to, I live to hunt.

My wife and I usually take 2 vacations a year. We go on her vacation to the beach somewhere, then we take my vacation to chase bulls in Colorado. Though it's a stretch to call my hunt a vacation,it's way morefun than the beach, although I can enjoy sitting back and drinking a beer on the sand and doing some snorkeling. Something about the mountains I can't get enough of!

I don't like sitting around and looking stupid. Some do and that is fine. But to me relaxing is taking myself to the edge and back again.
