You may always hunt with a partner, but it's pretty much an individual sport.

RE: getting her to hunt
You guys that say leave her at home are missing out. Now don't get me wrong, I don't want her in the stand with me every time I go out, but neither does she so it works out for both of us. I love for my wife to go with me 3 or 4 times a year. She shot her first deer while hunting with me about 15 years ago and she shot her first buck while hunting with me 2 years ago. I was as excited as she was. I wouldn't have traded the moment for anything. I love spending time with my wife and I love hunting so I get the best of both worlds when she goes with me. Besides, if it it a slow and cold morning in the blind you have someone there to keep you warm. [8D]

RE: getting her to hunt
I think that we can all agree that hunting in all forms takes a certain person or personality. You have to be able to stand all that mother nature has to offer, sit in a tree stand(sometimes boring as he**..) etc, etc.... There's probably 1,000 different things and different situations that go into it. Now with that said....how many people do you know that got into it, really into it, after let's say age 25-30 or older? I'd have to say not a ton. Hunting is usually something that was instilled from our fathers, mothers, uncles, aunts or relatives at a young age. So in essence, it's a bit engrained in our heads as to what it takes to be sucessful. The word sucessful means so many things to so many people. It's really not about taking your wife/girlfriend out in the woods. It's about taking someone new into the great outdoors. It's just not for everyone. It just so happened that the thread got started with a fella wanting to take his girlfriend out. A few of us, me included, just piped in with some of the things our wives would say if we were to take them with us. It's probably not that we wouldn't want to, but dang would it be a lot of work. My two cents. Don't ask my wife, because she'd say that I'm wrong.
