Talk about mixed emotions, wait until your son/daughter want's to get into it. You feel like a kid at the candy store with unlimited allowance.

That is a weird one............my father has hunted for about 40 years now.......mostly gun. He never regrets bringing his 3 boys into the hunting world but readily admits that a small part of his enjoyment of it all has been replaced by an uneasy feeling deep in his heart for the well being of his sons...........He taught us all very well but we hunt public land a lot and seeing what I have seen out there over the past couple decades by his side makes me understand completely why he lets out a sigh of relief every time he hears our voice on the Talkabouts or sees us break the woodline on our way back to the truck. No matter how old we get he still feels responsible for bringing all his boys home safe.

Be safe.
