    I pretty much quit shaving when it is time to hunt. I do hate it when it gets just long enough where a whisker gets pulled when you let the string go on a shot

    Lmao my beard doesn't grow straight down or stay tamed like yours does. Mine just goes wherever it feels like if I don't brush it like once an hour.

    I had to trim it for a job interview, but I have a beard year round.

    First day in Ohio, 7:30 am filled tag. Before anybody criticizes me for not smiling, my wife says this is me smiling :) .

    Same for me. Mine is ok if I keep it trimmed. But I have not done that in about a month or so. Also have not been completely beardless in over a year. Last time I shaved to a goatee because the wife was complaining about the beard, she immediately regretted telling me to shave.[​IMG]

    once an hour?!? Mine doesn't stay put for 5 minutes. As for a seasonal beard, what's that? Unless you mean letting it grow longer in the cold weather, for chin and neck protection. The only time I haven't had one in the past 45 years was when I was in the Army, back in the early 80's

    I have had a beard for 34 years, non-stop. I keep it trimmed shorter in the summer, but I let it get thicker during cold weather. Both of my kids, who are 30 and 28, have never seen Dad without a beard. I don't mind shaving..............I just like my beard, and plan on having it until they turn me back into dust. It sure saves on face paint during deer season.......you only need a dab here and there....the beard does the rest! :)

    And you gotta keep her happy. I don't have that problem yet ha.

    Mine doesn't grow in real thick so keep it so what trimmed. So I can't give anybody to much crap.

    That is because my beard fears me and knows its purpose...

    I beard year round. With great beard comes great responsibility. There is awesome power in the beard and I cant imagine removing it.
