Thread: Introducing kids to the bush

binos so they can find animals before you do..lots of treats and make sure to stop for widdle stops..... or they will pee themselves as dont want to ask to stop...

It’s great taking the kids out. I started my twin boys duck shooting when they were 4. They stayed deer hunting with me when they were 6. I have a picture somewhere of James trying to poke the eyes out of a hind. Nothing evil in it, just pure curiosity. Be prepared for lots of talking, and complaining about being cold, hungry, tired and sometimes scared. Great times. As an aside at 21 they both fully fevered and pig hunt and deer stalk 2-3 times a week. It was well worth it. I can go to my grave happy that I have introduced them to a fantastic pursuit.

Am going with my son in law and grandson for his first “big” hunt , as he calls it today
Son in law has permission for a block, bit of a Bach so we’ll get an evening and morning hunt in
Not sure who’s more excited the boy or the old ones 👍👍 he’s been bunny popping with me a few times now so knows he has to be quiet 🤫
Oh by the way he’s nearly 10
