NathanL,
If you'd rather be doing something else....... then it's a job. Never had one and never wanted one. I try to make sure that my passion remains just that, and not something I do for pay. I pace myself. I probably average about 80 days per year "afield". Some years more, some years less. I've ordered my life so I can hunt. I suffer from SDD (shooting deficit disorder). I think I'm terminally afflicted. Shootin' and killin stuff assuages the symptoms. Consequently I shoot weekly and hunt monthly. Still, as a wise man once said, " A man's gotta know his limitations.
Best
