RE: HOW OLD?
As far as I know here in WV there is no minimum age, but once you are of licenses age (14) you must possess the hunter safety card. Prior to age 14 I think most expect youngsters to be with an adult. Although that doesn't always hold true and more especially when I was growing up.

My kids have to 12 years old here in Michigan. My son just turned 12 so I bought him and Edge to hunting with me this year. He does have to take the course yet but he will soon. He's getting his bow for Easter. I can't wait to hit the (deer)trails and kick open the ole pop up blind

I was reading that Wisconsin is thinking about going to 10 years old now.

We've got a mentoring program here in PA that lets kids hunt younger than 12 as long as they pass the course, BUT I think it only applies to certain seasons, and I don't think bow hunting is one.

Youth in my state (Indiana) have to pass a hunter safety course to obtane a hunting licenese, but there is no age restriction for hunting, just a 35 lb pull min on archery equip. My 8 year old son just passed the course by the way
