Amazing how ignorant some men are that think kids don't hunt with their parents.
Amazing how some people have zero reading comprehension skills. I’m talking about guys who ditch their wife and kids frequently to go to the hunting camp. Not dads who bring their kids hunting with them.

I’m over it. It’s not really that much fun.

You replied to me, how am I to deduce all of that from what you stated?
Maybe if you'd have explained yourself the first time the reading comprehension bit would be valid.

When I was a teenager, my older brother kept hounds, and we rabbit hunted.
When I was discharged from the Navy, and started college, I got my first Beagle, about 1970. I've owned Beagles ever since.
Rabbits are getting scarce, and its more difficult to find places to hunt.
Farm Land is disappearing, turned into subdivisions/housing projects. I think I have shot one rabbit in the last ten years. Most of my hunting buddies have passed.
So I just take the hounds out for my exercise. I keep them now because it gives me a reason to keep moving rather than sitting around watching TV.
As I get older, sitting around during the hot summer months, I can tell my body starts to weaken.

Good thing my wife and kids are always with me at the camp!
In fact my oldest is hunting his last “youth weekend” this weekend and smoked a beautiful 8pt this morning.
Not all hunters abandon their families to hunt or enjoy the outdoors. An old snaggle tooth cashier at a Walmart told us a long time ago “that a family who hunts together stays together”. Could be why we happily married over 17yrs and have boys ate up with hunting and fishing.

Does it make you sad to think about hunting?

Some of my favorite moments in my life have been being in a tree stand by myself in the pitch black and watching the woods wake up around me. I consider some of them “religious” experiences.
On the flip side, being stuck in a swamp unexpectedly after sundown and a broken flashlight is fear inducing.

“my older brother kept hounds,and we rabbit hunted”
I had beagles over 20 years,was my favorite hunting I ever did.I had some really good dogs I got from an old man in Eunice.
It just got to where there was no where to go,timber companies started leasing their land for hunting clubs.
I wasn’t in it for too many years it became more about the dogs and less about shooting rabbits.I enjoyed raising puppies,training them and seeing them become fully trained dogs.Iwould typically only shoot 1 rabbit per trip.
Deer hunting is all I do now but it is pretty boring by comparison.
