For myself I tend to have seasonal hobbies. I like to switch it up. So for me it is:

Winter: Skiing/Hunting gear tinkering
Spring: Gardening (mainly vegetables but also some flowers)
Summer: Archery, Golf, Gardening
Fall: Hunting
 
Winter: scouting, stand site prep. Spring: more scouting looking over new areas, refreshen mineral licks Summer, archery practice out of trees, cams out over mineral sites, checking bean fields once July hits. Fall: hunting, in season scouting, more hunting
 
Winter: Small Game hunting, scouting, lurking on saddle hunting message boards
Spring: Turkey hunting, outdoor writing, trying not to buy too much new gear
Summer: Archery, a little more writing, Gear tinkering, lurking on saddle hunting message boards
Fall: Hunting, watching PSU football
 
Winter (after season): post season scouting

Bow season starts Sept 1 and runs through the end of Feb. The rest of the months constitute the pre-season and are for training and other prep work.
 
Winter: Indoor Honey-do Lists and getting ready for hunting
Spring: Outdoor Honey-do Lists and getting ready for hunting
Summer: Accelerated Honey-do Lists and squeezing in extra time to get ready for hunting
Fall: Get out of my face with that damn Honey-do List because I'm going hunting!

We have an understanding that she gets to work me to death from January to the first of September but after that I'm on Honey-do sabbatical.

CF year around but lay off intensity during hunting season Oct 1 thru Jan 31
Spring: tinker with my bow setup and make any changes as well as shoot a lot, maybe fish a little. Would love to scout if all my woods weren't under water the past 2 years after season from flooding
Summer: shoot my bow early and late, get acclimated to the heat and mosquitoes

According to Mrs. TreeMunkie my hobby is collecting gear-intensive hobbies. Sadly, she's not wrong. I'll try anything that looks like fun and my garage, shed, and bank account bare the evidence: dirt bike, road bike(s), mtn. bike, road bicycle, surf board, hunting gear, fishing boat and gear (trolling setups for walleye and salmon), fly-fishing gear, camping gear, cross-country skis, snow shoes, and more.
