Take him and let him shoot what ever legaldeer he wants. If it's the big one, then even better for him.
That's THE best reply I've read here! This season will be the firstthat I have ALL 3 of my kids going out on the IL Youth Firearm hunt and they are more then welcome to take ANY deer that gives 'em a buzz. My boys are only 8 & 9 and looking for their first deer, my daughter is 13 and has raised the bar a bit more. Whatever they choose is perfectly fine with me.
