My 15 year old daughter has completed the hunter safety course and has her WIN but she hasn't come hunting with me this year. We have been to the range and she does well with her 308 win. She is in honours science classes and wants to focus on studying this year. Fair enough. Sigh.

Now that you talk about it, I might have to go on ebay or etsy and buy me a couple of kids to take hunting...

Don't worry kids can miss a weekend of hockey games or practice to go hunting with their dad. Its not like he is is NHL material. Will get way more out of hunting with dad for a day or weekend are my thoughts.

Good point. Kids are over scheduled these days anyway. Good to get them away.

Thumbs up Excitement doubles when go with my kids

I have two daughters age 14 and age 9 . My elder daughter has completed her hunter safety course successfully. She also got drawn for Mule Deer in wmu 230.

I am taking both of daughters to hunt with me since more than 7 years. Both of my daughter like to sit with me when i butcher any wild meat in my garage.

I have taken my second oldest son who is 9 out bird hunting for several years, and this year will be the first year to take him along deer hunting. I don't think we will be able to put on too many miles, but I have a blind set up with a chair and will keep him entertained with some snacks, his own binos and the "can" doe call for him to operate to keep a look out! More important to me that I spend the time with him than it is to get an animal. We will see what happens. Oldest isn't that interested, youngest daughter might take it up I am hoping.

Took my 2.5 year old son out hunting the other day. He took ten steps then rattled, ten steps then rattled, And he whispered the whole time in excitement for a big buck!! All the morning hunting shows an experience in the woods are paying off! Never to young!
