Beards and Hunting?

[No_Regerts]

And if you were ever on the news for anything bad, the only one they'd show is the charly chaplin stache.

Especially anything gun related.

... For those who think they can't grow a beard ... once I realized the thing has to be GROOMED to look good, I instantaneously could grow a really nice pro-beard.

The one time I did try to grow a beard, I did do just your technique. I also found out, there's a fine line between having a well manicured beard and a gay dude's horticulture garden. Call it homophobic prejudice from where I grew up, but a carefully trimmed beard like Larry Ellison's - that's like wearing an ear stud in your left ear. Lotta guys do it, not for me.

No, sir - you gotta TRIM it regularly.

I know, I know, trim is a transitive verb, but in all caps it means entirely something else.

Much better at home in a hot shower with a tiny unbreakable mirror stuck to the wall - no comparison. Guys, if you haven't tried a shave in the shower, spend a few bucks on the cheapest mirror you can find. After it fogs up, spit a mouthful of water on it. Totally comfortable, clean and quick.

You don't need a mirror to shave. Haven't used one in the last 35 years.
+1 to shaving in the shower.

And that would be?

And that would be?

That region anatomically attached to TAIL.

It starts getting cold I start growing a beard.

+1 I age about 10 years with my beard but its something to do in the winter. Good place to store extra food too.

Roger. Just checking. In the same way you expressed the sub-cultural problem of a transitional metrosexual beard, I know the term "trim" in that context is highly sub-cultural/regional.

Not seasonal for me. Hunting or not, if Uncle Sam isn't paying me to scrape my chin and upper lip with a blade, it's not happening. Mostly a goatee for decades now, kept neatly under control with a $6 Harbor Freight clipper and the short #2 guard. I do shave my jaws and neck a few times a week to keep everything intentional (and avoid looking like a gray scrotum).

Did the neck shave standing at the sink in a condo on vacation last month and hated it. Probably yanked out more than I actually cut.

------- EDIT:
Here's one for $10 (and it explains why a shower shave feels so much better).

Ahhh, NO.....
I'd rather be ruggedly handsome than a pretty boy anyday....

I hear you on that

Doesn't seem to matter what I do women just seem to find me very attractive


Now! If I could only figure out how to work that same magic on male elk and deer...

Trim is a "urban" word for getting some tail,not much regional or anything else. Just getting laid.

Grow it out every year so I don't have to use face paint
