Default RE: Taking my son for the first time.

ORIGINAL: farmcntry

I've got some tips for ya;
Be ready to leave when he is.
Don't expect a "quiet" hunt.
Better to set up in a ground blind also to reduce his movement being seen.
Take something to keep his attention if the deer don't pop out right away. (NO VIDEO GAMES PLEASE.) I take this time to show my son how to "whiddle" on a stick safely.
Remember this is "his" hunt, so don't stay out there after he wants to leave for your own reasons.

Have fun and good luck!
Exactly!!!.. The ground blind is perfect for the kids. They can move around, sleep, whatever and not be seen. But they will be heard.
I hope you see a lot of deer. That will be real exciting for him even if you don't get one. Let us know how it goes
