i haven't been hunting ..like really hunting..in 20 yrs. opportunity abounds where I live. saw a herd of 10 or so deer the other night out riding the quad down the fenceline. turkey literally next to my pool.
I took him out to shoot hogs one night and he just don't have the patience. wanted to some back before we even got to the spot.
hes 9. thinks its all about just walking out there and shooitng something. showed him some videos of cleaning and gutting deer and rabbits. he wasn't much on that part.
squirrels would be a good place to start and I figure he could shoot good enough to get one.
never had to teach anyone how to go out and sit for hrs waiting for something to happen. he doesn't get that ya gotta find em and figure out where they go..and track em when ya shoot em...clean em...ice em...qtr em...all the after kill prep work
so gimme some advice. I was just gonna walk him out there w/o a rifle and let him see if we can see some up close or maybe take a pic. sit under a tree for awhile. stands are on the property already but im not going up in one w/o a belt and he sure isn't ether..
