I'm 19 now, i've been out in the woods the past 13yrs with my grandpa, i did get my first deer though til this past year. Probably cuz i hunt Adrondack deer which if you ask anyone is probably one of the most difficult things todo in the woods because there are so few deer.

I started when I was 13. I had shot 22 LR and 20 gauge at songbirds and stuff when I was 8, but I didn't get into legitimate game hunting till 13.

I started shooting with a BB gun around the age of 6. I just recently shot my first deer (an old doe) 2 muzzleloading seasons ago.

I have been "hunting" with my dad since I was able to sit up in a backpack-type seat but got my hunter safety certification when I was 10 and have been hunting since. I am 17 now.

I started hunting small game (rabbit and squirrell) when I was like 8 or 9 with my grandpa. My first deer season was when I was 12. I shot a doe that year. I'm 20 now.

Dad let me sit with him when I was 5. I got to carry a gun when I was 7 and I shot my first deer when I was 9.

RE: How old were you when you started?
 
I started hunting in my backyard with a bbgun when I was about 6.
Then moved on to a crack barrel 410
for squirrels and doves when I was about 8 or 9. That was a lot of fun. Started deer hunting with my dad at
about 12 (would have started sooner but no lease).



Gillbilly 04-24-2007 02:21 PM

RE: How old were you when you started?
 
i never really got a real urge to get out and go huntin' till about 'round now.. at 15.

dad took me my first time on like the 4th day after the deer already been shot.. so it wasn't a good "first impression." Enjoy it more now that I'm older.
