Come on guys, lets get the kids involved and share our passion for hunting & shooting!!

I actually struggle with this. If you take a neighbor kid hunting, then they expect you to take them all the time--this is an issue because most of the places I have to hunt are two person places at most (25 acres or so). I have taken a kid whose father owns a farm hunting because he loves it and I know he would have a place to hunt if I showed him the ropes---stand selection, setup, shooting etc. I gave him a MLer, a bowand my son gave him a 8mm Mauser rifle.

I know a couple of kids (one 18 and another 15 I believe)in my chuch that I could take, but then I would have to take them all the time, so how do you get around that, without hurting the kid's feelings or disappointing the kid? Chap
