The title pretty much says it all. What kind of things do you all like to do excluding hunting/fishing related activities?

My "other" hobby is golf. Both regular and disc. Recently I've also found myself interested in North American history, so I spend also little time each day learning also bit.

I try to get on a few snowboarding trips a year, just got back from Aspen, plan to go to MT or WY again in a few weeks. I used to ride motorcycle but just sold mine last spring to buy an ATV for ice fishing. I ride bike for exercise and fun.

I think photography could be cool as a secondary hobby as i'm in the outdoors pursuing other hobbies. There are times i wish i would have had a good camera.

Used to snowboard a lot but now ice fishing kind of took over that. I find weird things to tinker on and build when stuck inside during winter. otherwise it is cooking/grilling/BBQ, restore antique tractors (in maintenance mode now), garden. I found these are things that my two daughters can join in on and actually have fun helping me with.

Photography, guitar are my other two. Used to play lots of golf until back surgery two years ago ended that. Actually spend 10+ years working in the golf industry.

Gardening. It's a great way to escape all the bullshit.

Planting Trees, Creating Habitat, Making Jigs, Preparing Wild Game, and Gardening. All of which are just offshoots of hunting and fishing. So depending on how you look at it, I have several other hobbies or no other hobbies.

Any hobby I have is wrapped around fishing. Done with softball, golf clubs see the sunlight a couple times a year, and if the little man ever sleeps through the night, I'll get back to the gym.

Until then, I'll fish, make stuff for fishing and plan for fishing. My wife and I do enjoy getting to baseball games though. Trying to get the spring training trip planned.

I enjoy doing some wood working. I like to turn duck/goose calls and pens on my lathe. I also like Finding burls from trees and processing them. You can find some amazing looking wood out there

Im going to cave and buy some golf clubs soon. I miss out on too many "work related" outings.

have been teaching myself guitar over the last couple of years. I also enjoy the xbox. It's an amazing stress reliever for me. Golf once or twice. I have tried to retire from softball but I always end up being a "permanent fill in". Playing men's league hockey. Realized I can't keep up anymore. Time to switch to old man's league. Been looking at rod building or jig making or spinner building but I would need someone to teach me that stuff.

Golf, spending time with grandkids and watching them play all kinds of sports. Time with grandkids would include fishing, hunting, and golfing with them. Do a little woodworking as well. My main problem is that I don't have any hobbies that don't cost money. I guess it's not really a problem when they are involved, worth every penny.
