Default RE: Starting a kid hunting

Probably the best advice that could be given, is when you do take them afield and they start loosing intrest while hunting, stop hunting. Whether you are deer hunting or tukey hunting, etc., if they are ready to go home or do something else then stop. If you force them to stay in the woods and they are not enjoying it, they'll remember that the next time you want them to go and choose to stay home! It has to be fun for them when they are young. I started taking my son with me turkey hunting when he was 4, but he didn't hunt until he was 6. Killed his 1st deer at 7! What a feeling!
