All then successful youth hunting pictures (mine included) have me wondering how many people take their kids all the time. When I got married I had a microwave family. I gained two kids- a son (was 9 at the time) and daughter (was 7). The became mine the minute I said I do. We even celebrate "our anniversary". One of the ways me and my son bonded was hunting. He has gone with me every year and there are very few times he doesn't go with me. If he doesn't its because he has something else like a sleepover, and some mornings he likes to sleep in (13 so that's normal). It makes hunting a lot harder with two people, double movement, smell, noise.... This year was his first bow hunting with his own bow. But before that we even went together to bow hunt, which he only watched. I wish my daughter like to go, but she isn't interested at all.
We still enjoy the youth hunt. Its the first time he can use a rifle and get a shot off at those deer that always seem to be out of bow range. I do wish they moved it back one weekend though. As he gets older and more of a social life the last weekend of Oct is a busy one with Halloween parties, hayrides, etc..
What do most people do with their kids during the rest of the year?
