Youth hunt 2005
« on: Apr 23, 2005, 07:54:38 PM »
How'd all your sons and daughters do on Saturday?
I had to work but we are giving it a shot tomorow!

Encouraging as a LARGE tom crossed the road in our very residential area, as I was coming home from work. My first deer came the morning after a similar incident years ago. Could tomorrow be my 13 yr old son's first turk? Fun will be had by all!

Youth season here in NH is next weekend. going out with my buddy and his son for his very first turkey hunt. I love watching the kids get them, I enjoyed my stepsons first turkeys in 2003 and 2004. Headed to Vermont next weekend for the opener on Sunday. Good luck venisonman tomorrow! Hope the young one is successful!

Well, thanks for the wishes, The weather and turks did not cooperate. No Luck for venisonboy. Though we had several run across the road on the way home. He took it well......"at least we got a good hike , Dad!"

Fun was had by all!

Yeah.. too bad. I really want him to harvest something soon, to help keep his interest.
We did some very limited duck hunting last Fall and he did not get a shot. The ducks were a little shy by the late season and it was mostly pass shooting. His reflexes need to improve a little.
On the bright side, he seems to enjoy the entire experience and understands it is not always about the kill. I love spending time watching him grow. He's going to be a great outdoorsman and sportsman.

True words. The first kill is just a bonus...
