Helps if they are raised correctly! I take my kids (Girl 2 years old, Boys 3 & 5) on every aspect of the hunt except the actual bow hunt. I let my boys discover my down doe this year (after I found it). This will be the first year I take the girl gun hunting. We sit in the blind, bullets in my pocket, read stories, eat junk food and drink hot cider. Haven’t shot a deer with them in the blind, but that’s not what it’s about!

This is on private land, I wouldn’t dream of doing this on public land. My wife is from a hunting family, but doesn’t hunt. She does love hunting season however, because she gets child free days.

My daughter will be available for dating in 14 years! But remember, daddy has guns, and she has 2 older brothers!
