Maturity counts, so personally I’d suggest you avoid asking someone ‘young’. Someone your parents age is good Your boss/foreman can be an option. I’ve referenced a couple of my employees.

Yes your dad sounds ideal. I believe you have to nominate one family member anyways.....

Make sure to ask, and discuss your intended application with whoever you nominate. They have to sign off the paperwork anyway but caution them the vetting process can take a while. Months.

I was going to use my girlfriends father as my second, he's been a license holder for 30+ years, a range safety officer and he and i hunt together frequently. In fact he's the main reason i really kicked my process to get the license into high gear.
