1) Who would it hurt or disappoint more if you were not there, your family or your gf?

4) Christmas isn't about you so who would it mean more to if you were there?
5) Can you afford that many days off work?
Be in prayer until you have to make a decision and ask that God makes it clear for you and whatever you feel you should do, stick to it and don't allow yourself to wander about the what ifs.
Good luck and Merry Christmas - Alex
If you are heading toward serious with this gal, spending time with her around her family is never a bad thing. It will either reinforce where things are going, or could raise some questions. When you hitch your wagon to a girl, you get the whole package typically. It sounds like it will be a great time, but this is a great opportunity to experience her with her family, and also potentially make some friends. The hunting component is always extra...but...you never know what kind of fruit new friendships with her family may produce.
There will be many more hunting seasons and family holidays waiting for you. I would also consider what message your absence could send to her family, even if you're on good terms with them, etc. if it were me, i would go. But I know whatever you feel God is leading you to do is the right choice

if you are serious about this girl then you need to consider the fact that someday SHE will be your family. So from that standpoint you will be spending the holiday's with your family. My wife is Mexican and I spent several christmas's down there with her and her family before we were married. I didn't even get to hunt. But don't regret any of them. Just part of growing older. Your family grows and changes. Just need to embrace it and enjoy all the great new memories you are making and having. Good luck.
