Sounds good to me. As long as your bride killed the deer.
Now, where is that sweet, understanding Cheyenne lady. I would have to be already married.

I'm here!!! These people don't understand. They weren't brought up in a hunting and fishing family. I'm the same way with fishing. I would never ever take a job that kept me from my annual fishing trip. Every job I've ever accepted has had those two weeks of the year cleared as time off before I signed on the dotted line. On the other hand, I never in a million years would get married during those two weeks, either.

The Deer Hunter...
and getting married on the Sunday of the starting weekend.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm sounds like I great plot for a movie, perhaps I could set it in a steel town, and send the main male characters off to war after the wedding and hunting scenes.
What you mean it's been done already, Damn Damn Damn!
Did it have a good ending?
Only joking, LMAO.
IMHO he should give it up this year, or as others have said it will come back to haunt him for the rest of his marriage or his life, which ever he losses first.

You guys are so awesome!! 
I was so pleased to see all these responses here!
Let me clarify a few things.... hubby has not always been an avid hunter. Only in the last, I dunno, 4 years or so has he been going on this hunting thing.
Thus, if he's only been doing this for 4 years and not a lifetime, one would think he's not SOOO into it that he would miss his own anniversary.
Okay, guess what, as far as this whole saga goes, the plot thickens.....
He's not going hunting this weekend at all! He was never planning on going hunting! He has, however, booked a really nice cabin so that they can go away and have a romantic weekend. He has just created the whole hunting ruse so that he can surprise her. He's got jewelry and everything! (Why the heck he wanted to risk her wrath in this manner is beyond me! It's a good thing she is rather agreeable at most times.)
So while her reaction has been most similar to KillerMuffin's, she would never forbid him from going, etc, and the thought of going on a stinky hunting trip is not the least appealing, she would NEVER forget this if he went.
So now what do I do?
Do I tell him to confess his surprise to her so that she agrees to go? (I was practically crying when he told me this! Poor guy is getting the silent treatment for nothing! And I hate to ruin the surprise because it will be soo much more sweet in the long run.)
But how the heck do you convince a woman to go HUNTING (for moose, not deer, by the way) for her wedding anniversary???

OMG
That is sooooooo sweet!! I say play along if you can and if you guys are good friends just try to convince her "to trust you she will have a good time and pack all the fun things" Maybe you can tell her that "you never know it may turn out different than you expected? I don't know but it just RINGS romantic! When it happens let us know how it went! I am sure I won't be alone in wanting to know how she reacted to the surprise!

Dear hunt
He better tell her this is a "dear" hunt and not a moose hunt. She may cause problems with his plans, otherwise.

Well...
tickle me purple with a feather, and then hit him up the side of his head.
Now we get to the harder part, I wouldn't like to recommend anything except honesty, at least enough to tell her she would be better going with him than staying at home.

Hey , I admit I am pure 100% City boy and never went hunting.........I'm not against it hey what ever floats your boat.......I'd rather you you guys kill them than me hitting them with my van.......hell they are everywhere here, and it is a big problem.....................All I'm trying to say is if he goes off on the trip she will make him pay forever..............And he can't have a good time knowing his wife is at home or in the cabin pissed off at him................We learn in life, maybe this will be one of those learning things for him......If he does this he won't do it again I bet.........

To hunt or not to hunt, is this Question?
I'm not into hunting, but have friends that are. They will drive hundreds of miles, smear deer shit all over them,sit in the rain in near freezing cold, and love it. Just not my thing, but to here them tell it, opening day is by far you best shoot at bagging a deer. I'm not sure of this, but I think about 90% of the kills happen on opening day. I would give him opening day, and make him drive back for a three day anniversary bash. Then he could finish what's left of the hunt.

Hey Wizard & chal13 I think you need to read up a couple of posts He isn't REALLY going hunting he's telling her that and trying to get her friend SpecialK to convince her to go and then she will find out there is no hunting trip but a romantic trip for just the two of them! Whew!

He should not even be considering going hunting he should be spending the day and night with his beloved. Marriage and anniversary's are special and should always be celebrated together.
When my mum and dad got married my dad gave up a once in a lifetime moment (England winning the 1966 world cup) to marry my mum , and even a serious accident to my dad which keep him in hospital for 9 months (they said he'd never walk again but he did on my first birthday) my mum travelled to London to hospital to see him when she could afford because in them days working class people had no luxuries but even for there wedding anniversary she made the trip to be with him on there special day.
Did he hunt before he got married if he did he should have got married out of season

Then he isn't a born and raised deerhunter and his getting married on opening weekend makes a hell of a lot more sense than it did originally. Did you tell him we all thought he was an idiot for doing that in the first place?
If she is that pissed at him, I'd have him fess up about the rented cabin for the two of them and the real "no hunting" plan. Part of the enjoyment should be the looking forward to going stretch of time before the actual event. Right now, he is enjoying that time and she is steaming.

Awwww thats so sweeeeeeeeet. This guy is a keeper.
If she's anything like me, he won't be able to drag her out there and surprise her with the dear hunting bit. Its either tell her the truth, or tell her he cancelled the plans, wants to take her someplace special, but its a surprise, and kinda blindfold her, or have her cover her head when they get near it. Or something.

So many guys just don't get it. Their women should be FIRST with them--ALWAYS! Hunting on your anniversary? Go the weekend AFTER! There will still be plenty of frightened little Bambis to murder the next week AFTER the anniversary, the weekend AFTER hunting season opens!
Frank had an annual old-car show the day before our wedding 4 years ago. I insisted that he go, and I was up at 7:00 a.m. at his side helping him polish the car, enjoying his interest with him, even though we were getting married the next day. I think the car got jealous of me, though, because we were going to use it to go from the wedding to the reception, and it REFUSED to start that day! We wound up using his friend's antique car instead.
On our wedding day itself, and on every anniversary since, he has been 100% MINE! He even gave up the car show this year to whisk me away for a romantic 4th-anniversary weekend. There will always be other car shows, and there will always be other weekends when you can hunt, but there will NOT be another woman who loves you and with whom you put each other FIRST. Having my first husband die taught me to appreciate your love above all else, it is so fleeting that you need to cherish every moment you CAN have together. It's all about priorities. It is SO hard in this world to find a tue love, a soulmate, and once you do, he/she should be your TOP priority, ALWAYS.
I agree, the thought of him tramping through the woods getting all smelly and then trying to make love, combining hunting and romance in ONE trip, just DOESN'T do it!
I wish you luck.

*sigh* As a veteran (victim) of poorly thought out surprises, I say that he should just come clean and tell his wife what he's up to. Otherwise she will resent him for putting her through that hell of thinking he didn't care enough to spend their anniversary with her. It's better all around to confess. That way they can both be anticipating the weekend, and enjoy it when it comes.
You'd think that after ten years he would know better, don't you?
