Default RE: How old should the little guy be?

My son will be 4 in Oct, and he has gotten to go out with me a little for the last two years.. His first time, we went out on an evening rifle hunt for a couple hours, took cookies and toys, and tried to make him enjoy himself, even saw a really good buck, and ended up not getting a shot cause of tryng to get my sons ear protection on. Last fall he got to go out with me for deer a few different trips, and got to see some deer and a family of coons on one trip. He also got to go with me for a fall turkey hunt, and got to watch a flock come in to the calls, and watch me shoot one,, he was so excited, he loves going to the woods with me more than anything else, he always goes with me to check my game cams, and plant food plots, and anything else I do in the outdoors, I usually let him just kind of do what he wants, to an extent,, if he wants to dig in the dirt with a stick,, so what,, I ll get more days to hunt. On one trip last fall, we were squirrel hunting, and he started to just look everthing over,, he would go a few yards and look at a tree or stick, than come back, and then go find something else.. At his farthest, he may have gone 30 yards from me, and then bragged to mom how far he was away from dad and hiding,,lol. Take them hunting, fishing, scouting, walking, checking game camera,, and get ready for the questions,, and another plus is they arent in front of the tv. and they like it much better.
