im 20 and have been hunting with bow since i was 13. It has both kept me out of trouble and got me in a little.

Out of trouble on the streets. In trouble with the teachers when opening day rolls around.

I' ve been huntin hard since I was about 14...would go every once in awhile before that squirrel huntin or whatever...

A lot of my friends hunt...I' d think that maybe down south the age is different, because hunting is more widespread then it would be in New York, nonetheless...if any young guys want to go huntin with me, I' ll take em, I love to see new people get introduced to the sport of hunting...whether old or young...

I' m in the process of trying to get my girlfriend to go with me right at this moment...
