Up here anyway to grow the facial hair out for hunting season! Just wondering if it's a yearly tradition around the continent to grow a beard or goatee or any kind of facial hair for the hunting season. Most people up here usually grow something on the face! Haven't shaved for over a week myself, gonna shave the lower neck part for now and that's about it.:cowboy:

I always shave my beard with the smallest gaurd to give it the 'rough' look but shave the lower neck jaw line and down with a razor. I have not touched the upper part all week preparing for opening of Duck this saturday. I plan to grow it out to keep warm during season.

Work appearance code prohibits facial hair other than a moustache 1/2" wider than Hitler's.

No huntin' whiskers here.

Grow one 1/2" wider than hitlers, take photos of work appearance HR person measuring your stache with a ruler or measuring tape, post pics for our enjoyment!

Thanks.

I grow mine out thicker for deer season. I heard a theory as to why people grow there beards out for hunting because it breaks up your face its like natural camouflage. About 2 deer seasons ago I grew my beard for deer season for the first time and me and my girlfriend liked it so I kept it. I only shaved it off one time and just trim it up when needed.

I've never really shaved regularly anyways. In the summer I shave about every 3 or 4 days and have a goatee. In winter I do the same as XJ and use the short guard. My buddies and I were actually thinking about all growing mustaches for gun season here....sort of a rally mustache like the Cardinals grew last year for their playoff run.:yes:

I put my beard and mustache on back in 1972, and it never came off ...... still there. It's a whole lot whiter now .... ha-ha ..... but it's the same style and length. It helps people remember that old man when I come walking at them .....:D

I almost always have a goatee and clip the rest with #0 maybe once a week or week and a half... lucky my wife likes it, she didn't even want me to shave on our wedding day.

I grew up in a hockey family and only started hunting last year, but I think the hunt beard is sort of the same as a playoff beard. More superstition than anything :)
