Why, Well let' s take the other day for example. My son and I were bowhunting during gun season, it was midday. I thought to myself we can go eat or put a little push through this thicket. If I had sat with through midday would we have seen anything maybe, but I doubt it. It had warmed up pretty good and most of the deer movement had been early.

So I made a plan with him and went and set up. He pushed four deer out that we wouldn' t have seen back at the house. Three of the four just came walking out, the fourth a huge doe was really moving.When he came out to me he was really excited. See he knew where those deer would be bedding and helped Dad out. I didn' t get a shot but he sure got a sense of accomplishment. He explained to me how he had to crawl through the one area and flanked the deer to move them my way.The same sense of accomplishment he does when we scout an area hang a stand and see/shoot deer out of it.When we got home he explained to Mom how he worked this push for Dad.

Another reason is plain and simple to kill some deer.A couple of the farms we do larger pushes on the farmers need the numbers lowered. Last year on one push ten guys we killed 8 does all mature. I think 11 shot were taken. This Thanksgiving day I didn' t go but they took 7.

How do you keep a kid interested in hunting and fishing, you give them some action.
