Thanks guys and ladies. Farewell to all.

The main reason for not hunting in Ontario is to get out with people I know and use to hunt with in places where there is real wilderness. Where some guide can not buy up the hunting rights to half the farm land in the county, or I don't have to drive 8 to 10 hours to find a real trail to walk for grouse.

Hmm...

The fact that I have found so few to hunt with and so few places to do it does play a small part, but the real problem is closer to home. By closer to home I mean my wife, that I have for the last ten years have encouraged and mentored in fishing and then hunting. After ten years I still have to prepare for each trip as if I was taking a small child with me.

Which is it?

Well let me just say this - some suggested you get professional advice - I agree and I'm going to give it to you for nothing - when you get down to it - from the beginning it was meant that women were not to do certain things - women aren't built to go hunting plain and simple - if they were they would have been made so that they have an easier way to take a leak in the bush -

Joe .. You are really pushing my patience here. I'm going to pretend you didn't say that. I'd rather have a mosquito bite on my bum than on the end of a di..

I have enjoyed my time here on the forum, and will at times miss many of you. But since I no longer find enjoyment pursuing hunting and fishing in Ontario, I find I have less and less interest in the topics of the forum.

To the few I have been lucky enough to hunt with, I have enjoyed and will remember our time in the field fondly.

By closer to home I mean my wife, that I have for the last ten years have encouraged and mentored in fishing and then hunting. After ten years I still have to prepare for each trip as if I was taking a small child with me. As the need to do more work to prepare for, and during the hunt increases she still does not seem to understand that she can not just sit and wait for me to load/unload, setup/take down and generally do it all. A simple walk on a trail for Grouse is do able because she can at least dress herself, and I only have to prepare shotguns, shells and a day pack. A waterfowl hunt is out of the question, with decoys, calls, blinds, shotguns, shells, boat( kayak ) and gear. Her idea of time does not help, arriving an hour and a half after the start of legal shooting and trying to put out a spread of decoys, blinds and everything by my self leaves little time to hunt when she only want to be away from the house for a "Couple" hours.

Between our current political situ , metrosexuality and all the other I've heard as of late that tops it. I wish I had that problem. I'm soon going to quit to, but for a real reason. Seeing threads like that is driving shares in wisers way up

Did you not have an almost identical post a couple years ago? I could swear you did.

If you go for good this time; good luck in your future endeavors. You're only giving up the best thing about living in this great country.

Leaving this forum cause one may tire of the gun toting lefties I would suggest is a tad different than quitting hunting

Please tell me you're joking.
