| So my husband needs a hobby... he has lots of hobbies but nothing he really loves... he used to be big into dirt bike and quad racing before i met him but his injuries do not allow him to do that anymore...
So any idea what i can get him into to give him that motorhead, speed, adrenanaline rush that is safe? and easy to do in an old man body? lol... horses dont fill that void i tried that..
Thanks for your help! |

RC Cars (like 100 mph ones)
Skeet Shooting/Clays
Shooting Rifles
Hunting
Bow Shooting
Barrel Racing
Four Wheel trail riding
Jeeping
none of these are cutting it :( I'm running out of ideas... |

| He's got the Beer Drinking one down pat lol!!
I'm searching for one because he has tried like 10 others... which all have failed... and just cost lots of money...
Plus... his latest idea is dragsters..... i'm scared cuz he has a bad back and it sounds incredibly dangerous... and not something you can gradually get into.. |

| I vote for trap shooting or bird dogs/bird hunting - neither of which are cheap but like I always say, "You can't put a price on a good time." 
Trap shooting is super fun, hard to figure out at first but very addicting. And bird hunting with a good dog is just second to none in my book. I hunt birds simply to watch our dog work - he is a freaking rock star. Good luck. I can understand your frustration! |
