Default RE: Starting a kid hunting

I started off letting my kids watch hunting shows with me. Then, I told each of them that when they were 5 I would take them hunting. For each of their first hunts I took them to a game ranch to hunt Corsican Sheep. That way they got to experience a harvest, I have taken my 7 year old and my 5 year old to the spot where I hunt most of the time and they have both sat in the blind when nothing came out. My five year old could care less if he hunts again, but my 7 year old daughter loves to go and also likes to watch hunting shows. That leaves me my three year old to take out in the future. She already asks me everyday if we are going to go shoot any piggies.
