Great stories.<BR/><BR/>Interestingly enough, I think I ran into one of the guys who was commenting on the Refuge Forums when I was out hunting on Wednesday with my friend Dana. Granted, everyone looks alike in camo, but this guy had the same face and facial hair as one of the commenters (whose photos I've seen on other forums).

If you have a leak in the boot, try Shoe Goo. If there's a leak in the waders, there are repair kits. If you go to your nearest hunting store, they can probably help!<BR/><BR/>Good luck on getting out for the closer.

I wasn't terribly interested at first, but I could see how very much it meant to him to share with me something that gave him so much joy. And I had a blast, despite getting freezing water down my waders and nearly dying. I exaggerate. A little. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Now I'm wanting to join him for the ninjapoodleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10322256509244988323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478505267875308908.post-86578797231552090972008-01-21T23:07:00.000-08:002008-01-21T23:07:00.000-08:00Welcome to the world of the Internet, where everyb...Welcome to the world of the Internet, where everybody is perfect because nobody has a face... or at least they don't have to show it.

Why would he want to let her invade that special space of his?<BR/><BR/>All I can say is I feel sorry for guys like that - sorry that their wives aren't also their best buddies. <BR/><BR/>The good thing is that guy's comment was in response to a post who was proud Holly Heyserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03134909592916671876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478505267875308908.post-30184631596062802452008-01-21T07:00:00.000-08:002008-01-21T07:00:00.000-08:00Some men just are not comfortable with women who h...Some men just are not comfortable with women who hunt or want to learn about hunting. I ran into that on a couple of forums when I first started posting. Some of the guys would ask what I was doing there or why I even wanted to be there. <BR/><BR/>Luckily, most of the male hunters I've met have been eager to share their knowledge and very encouraging.

My site gets it share of these too, it's just that their comments never see the light of day; I delete them before they're public.
