Simple Mind: Men Need To Hunt

Men need hunting season. I know this does not mean all men as there are a lot of them who don’t hunt… Some view hunting as just a reason to get rid of the wife and kids and have a drunken party. But a true hunter takes hunting very serious. and if they are lucky to have several friends who hunt, then it is a great time together ... to bond, to be just themselves.. very much like women do when they have a girls night out. Or a women’s retreat. Sometimes, no matter how much you love your spouse, it feels good to take a few days or a week to unwind. Both come back stronger than before/From A Simple Mind. More here.

Question: Does hunting scratch that itch for you to be out with the guys? If not, what does? And/or (for gals): What do you like to do when you go out with your women friends?
