Congradulations to your Daughter on her first bird. You must be proud of her. I think it's great. I took my 9 year old Daughter out last Saturday here in Kentucky. She didn't get one but we had a ball. She played (peek-a-boo) with a big tom at 6 feet. It was very exciting. Take a kid hunting just the expression on there face when they get close to the game is worth it.
