Today I took my 13 y.o. son, Jack, bowhunting for his first season. He shoots a compound, I shoot a recurve. Regardless we hunted within eye sight of eachother today.
We've turkey hunted before. But today was his first time hunting deer, in a tree stand and more or less on his own.
We saw the sunset. He had on owl land in his tree just feet away. We watched what must have been 1,000 + geese, ducks and sandhill cranes file into the wetlands behind our sit.
No deer were seen but the boy could not stop talking about his first deer hunt on the way home.
Make those moments happen dads, moms, uncles, aunts, grandparents! They'll last you both a lifetime.
