Serious question......

Can he pull enough draw weight to legally take this animal at 7yrs?

Are we talking bowhunting? I may have falsely assumed this.
i must have missed the 7 years old part .... I change my answer .....

He will have time later in his life to get a big one, take the one you worked for.

I would put him out in a place with high traffic and then let him take the first slickhead that came by. At 7 years old, it will be difficult for him to sit there hours on end waiting for the right deer. Getting that first deer under his belt will be great for him. As he gets older, then it's time to target a certain deer or certain class of deer.

Good luck brother.

X2 A deer is what we're looking for here. If it happens to be the big one that steps out... well, if it's close enough... let him shoot it.

I got hooked by shooting a doe. At 28 years old. He'll decide if he likes it by shooting anything. Just because it has antlers won't make the choice for him.

I think a 7 yr old (that seems so young to me) would be happy with any deer...we can't hunt until we are 12 in MN.

I would justhave him shoot the first deer he gets an opportunity on.

I'm sure he will be elated to get any deer. Like others have said, just have him shoot the first one he sees.
