Red face Hunting Wife/Mom looking for other Hunting Wives/Moms

Hi Everyone,
I am the wife to Gypsy'Boy, and am new to this forum. I love to hunt and love to meet new people. I have learned so much from my husband, He has taught me everything i know and am very grateful for this. I have been a SAHM for 7 years and have not had much of a chance to get out and hunt, and when i do usually have time hubby has already made plans with his buddies (which i don't make a big deal about because this is his time and he works hard everyday for us to live the life we do). I am looking to meet other wives/moms who hunt and would want to get together.

On the other side of this i do know how to shoot my 30 06 Weatherby Vanguard, maybe even better then my hubby, but shh... don't tell him that.LOL I also received a Diamond Infinite Edge Bow this past year for Christmas and am very excited to be able to use it.

I look forward to hearing from all the Wives/Moms on this forum.

Take Care
Gypsy'Girl

Default Wives

Have you been to the AHEIA women's weekend? Lots of wives, mothers, sisters go to that and have a blast, it's a great way to meet other gals...

Where abouts are you located? My wife is in the same situation out in Caroline and has a tough time networking with other moms of similar interests

Yes location would be helpful. My wife has been hunting for a few years but is looking for a female companion to join her. She's been very successful and is ready to give it a go without me beside her.

I am out of olds and no I have never been to the women's weekend but that sounds like a lot of fun!
Guys would love to connect with your wives if they are looking as well and are interested.

I'm not a mom or a wife yet, but what about girlfriends, can we be included too?

I've been hunting since I was a little girl, and my boyfriend doesn't hunt, so I do almost all of my hunting alone. It would be great to have other ladies to hunt with!

I should give you ladies my wife's number. She doesn't hunt but maybe you could convince her to start. Lol
Good luck ladies.

Im not a wife or mom either, but love to hunt, and getting to know other women as I go as well.

I always second AHEIA's outdoor womens program. taught me a lot, and is SOOOO much fun!!

I am in CGY but usually spend a good chunk of time up sundre caroline rmh area camping fishing and hunting.

I am in for a get together if any or everyone wants to get together for coffee and chat. I have a friend in red deer that would join us as well.

I've never been to the AHEIA's womens program. I might have to check it out.

I'm also in Calgary. We should get some ladies together for a coffee or lunch! Build some friendships and hopefully have some hunting partners for the fall

The Becoming an Outdoor Woman (BOW) program at Narrow Lake Conservation Camp is an excellent alternative for ladies in central and northern Alberta.
