Brain,

Ask someone if they wouldt mind if you tagged along on a few hunts with them...if you are new to it that would probably be the best way to start...then once you feel you can do it on your own go for it...first thing i would do with the kis is drill safety into their heads...safety safety safety...and also the importance and beauty of the outdoors and teach them to respect it...once you are into the swing of things take them out with you every chance you get...even if they are not shooting let them tag along...i did this from before age 3 with my father until i could legally shoot at age 10...was teh best thing for me..by the time i could shoot i had a full understanding of the outdoors, gun safety and respect...it is a great idea to involve your kids in it..keeps them out of trouble and gives them a lifelong passion and hobby...
