I got this idea from another site, but what are your off season hobbies? I love to fish in the off season and am trying to get back into Autocross and building big HP small block Chevy motors.

My old race truck. 425hp and a ton of suspension and brake upgrades. It would destroy corvettes in a straight line or the twisties. I'm looking for a.donor truck to build an awd version.

in the off season i work my ass off.

hoping to get some traps for christmas, since our off season starts when everything freezes solid. other than that, fishing when i can go.

After ducks. Sturgeon season starts up with a few trips to the pheasant club. Then dove food plots get put in.Turkeys and striper are next on my list of stuff I chase. After that I work at the property, with bass, cat fishing and a pig hunt or two mixed in their some where. Summer ends with salmon, dove, an archery deer season. With rifle season right after.

I take pictures of my neighbors from the maple tree in my yard.

I get ready for hunting season

I buy storage units and have yard sales to fund my hunting.

And you keep this shit show running

forgot to add: This year i'm going to give historical trekking a try. it's like backpacking, but you try to limit yourself to gear available in the 1800's.

Another valid point. Why you're the front runner for the least funnest person in the world award.

Drinking
Fishing for LMB (this year I'm gonna do some north ga trout fishing)
Cooking BBQ
River floating
And workin my ass off all summer.

This actually sounds like a neat idea.

I don't get into much the way I get into hunting. The off season brings preparing for the next season as my primary hobby...I also enjoy:

Golf
Softball
Fishing (catch and release)
Camping/hiking/canoeing
Target shooting (I am not Rex though)
I follow sports like its my job all year
Starting projects that I intend to fini
And a whole lot more...

I need to consolidate, and figure out what I'm going to have time for as the kids come and grow older...

i think so, plus if you can get to a point where you only need to bring a few items on a trip, you could really haul ass during elk season.

the only modern things i would think to be necessary would be a water filter and a modern med kit.

Shoot carp
Bass fish
Ice fish
Rabbit and squirrel hunting
Motocross
Work
School

This winter, I'm going to try and do some coyote and crow hunting.

What ever the wife wants done so I can hunt when the time comes.

Do you have sweet bowstaff skills?

I'm sure as hell not going to do it, but it sounds like a good time. I'd love to hear about it...

She doesn't actually have to be the boss, but as long as she thinks she is.

That's cheating. You either get typhoid fever or you don't. None of this Theory of Medium violating around here. 1800s or it's not. Take a jar of leeches and a bottle of whiskey, if you must have a medical kit.
