Really? I have met very few that do. Now I wil admit that I have taken a number of women to the gun range that begrudgingly agreed and had a number of them have such fun they bought a gun from the adjacent store on the way home. No too sure many of them would for go a shopping spree to the mall though.

I for one, would MUCH rather go hunting or fishing than going shopping. I HATE shopping. When I DO have to shop, my goal is to get in and out as quickly as possible. My husband, on the other hand, would rather shop than to hunting or fishing! In fact, I am the only hunter in the family....I can't get him to go out hunting for the life of me. HEck, I can't even get him to go out to the gun range with me! So, I leave him at homne watching TV, and I go to the range and have fun!

shake hands ;)
now just build me with a deep pond of fish in my backyard, and I'd be in 7th heaven. Not forgetting the fishing rod & bait which I've never owned nor ever tried. This deprived gal barely experienced most things except chronic pain & rigit/inhumane schedules & constant knocks :rolleyes:

I find plenty of single girls that love to shoot guns but paper targets are tough eating. The ones that like to fish don't wanna do anything but reel fish in. If they aint biting for 5 minutes or they have to touch live bait or fish they are done.

I don't care if they drink or not as long as I aint gonna get a sermon when I go out and drink a 6er in the shop.

As I said the good ones are already married. Any man lucky enough to find one aint stupid enough to turn her loose.

they are not all married, But yes the ones that are are held tight when it's cold :D:I am raising a couple of girls that like to hunt and fish, and they are picky!
good thing too! The question would be, where are the men ready for strong women! If there are many fish in the sea? do you stand out?

I absolutely hate shopping, I dont like fishing but I do hunt with my Camera - instead of killing the things I take photos. You still need a lot of the skills you would need for hunting you just let the animal live for another day.

My belief system is that unless your going to eat the animal/fish then you dont catch it and kill it.

PS: Im not married etc, but then I dont really like the human race, I much prefer the company of animals. I guess Im the original woodswomen I just prefer my own company then the dingbats Iv met in my life.

I've always loved being outdoors hunting,fishing, camping, hiking. Shopping is ok depends on what kind of shopping and how long. There is little I like better then sitting at end of a dock as the sun comes up with the waves lapping against the dock with that wonderful fresh clean air hitting you. Sunsets on the dock are also awesome. Shopping when I have money in a store that's almost devoid of customers isn't a bad thing either. Waking up in a tent in the morning watching the sun coming up can't be beat either. Hiking through the trees with wonder at the awesomeness that the good Lord created is inspiring and welcome retreat from daily life renews my spirit. I could go on and on. I guess I'm fairly well rounded, unless you want me to sit in front of a tv and watch sports ugh.

You know - to the guys looking for unmarried girls into hunting and fishing - look around! Obviously they're out there.

I'm dont like hunting - never been and I couldn't kill an animal, but I do love catch and release. Whats better than being on a quiet lake fishing! I do love shopping - I just hate the people I have to shop with!

Yeah. It's not easy.
There's definitely an emotional hurdle to overcome for anyone new to the sport (me).

I respect anyone who makes a personal choice not to hunt. However, if you use animal products at all, you should know that hunting is much more humane than factory farming of meat. Game animals live free, eat a more natural diet and (in most cases) are humanely and quickly dispatched.

I teach Hunters Education and what the antis don't realize that hunting is NECESSARY for the well being of wildlife to prevent over population that can cause starvation & disease. There has been and continues to be extensive crop & property damage due to wild pigs (that are also polluting streams, ponds. Remember the spinach/ecoli out break? It has been attributed to wild pigs contaminating the crops. Two years ago a DNR agent came to our club and told us that if we have a CPL that is all the certification that we need to shoot wild pigs .. and do it! DNR wants to avoid the devastation that is occurring in other states from these wild pigs.

Another fact .. it was hunters back in the 1890's/early 1900 that went to the Government asking for laws to protect wild life from extermination. The monies collected from hunting licenses today are used to educate, pay for conservation programs and pay the DNR law enforcement to protect wildlife.
