Well, I must say that my wife is a trooper. We dated for 5 years and now we have been married for almost 5. I told her right from the start, I hunt and I fish, those are my two passions and it's not gonna change. Basically what it comes down to, is that you have to do your part. I take care of the bills, watch the kid when needed and work around the house = I go hunting/ fishing. She keeps the house clean, cooks, does laundry wathces the kid(3 years old) 2nd due any day now = she goes shopping, to the beach, friends house, etc... Easy as that! It's a team sport.
