Trust me, I know all about being small! I am only five feet tall, it runs in the family. But I manage to shoot just fine. I like using the Benelli Super Black Eagle 2, its the duck hunting camo version. I was scared at first but once I shot it, it become my new partner. I'm always up for trying new things.
Do you think that your daughter will become a hunter because we need more girls out there to show those guys that hunting is not only for them.

Miriam will be two-years old on Oct. 22nd., so she's too young to hunt. But we take her with us scouting and we take her with us fishing too. In fact we take her everywhere we go.
She enjoys crawling through the woods, sneaking up on the animals. (We stalk, we don't hunt from a stand.) We're hunting woodchucks now and she goes with us. She watches me skin and clean them. (We eat them. They're just a big squirrel.)

You have a little bit on me. I'm 4'7" and 73 pounds. I keep seeing those billboards that say I should be in a booster seat in the car.

It's good that she is willing to come with and is interested in everything. I know most two year olds get bored easily.

Welll, i am usually the shortest lol. I bet those billboards are super annoying, being short drives me crazy on most parts let alone having that up there.

We take her almost everywhere with us. We want her to see us all as a family unit and identify with what we do. We also take her with us when we go out for nachos, etc. I'm not old enough to drink, but she enjoys going up and "dancing" with daddy if the band isn't too loud up close.
She really enjoys going out in the woods with us. There's always something different to see. And we try to show her stuff and tell her about it. My mom babysits for us but only if my husband is working or I'm in school. Otherwise she's with us.
We get really irate when we go out to the range and never see any kids there. How do people expect to pass shooting and hunting along to their kids if they don't let them take part in it?
I could go on with this rant, but I had better stop.
