Swamphunter Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 I'm taking my 4 year old son out to sit in my blind for an hour tomorrow around 10am. That way there is no walking in the dark to scare him, plus should I happen to get a shot, I can trail a deer in the light and he can be involved and also I don't have to worry about him getting out of my sight. I figure 1 hour is about all he will be interested so I don't have high hopes of getting a deer tomorrow, but thats ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRTMO Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Re: Taking the boy hunting tomorrow... Good luck. I hope you get one. Maybe you could take him out in the evening when there is a better chance of getting a deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swamphunter Posted October 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Re: Taking the boy hunting tomorrow... Its the dark thing with him...4 years old an all, he doesn't like the dark that much and I especially don't want to add the woods into the darkness factor. Besides, if I get a deer, we are going to skip the field dressing, I'll do it when I take him home! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Re: Taking the boy hunting tomorrow... Good luck Ken. Hope you get one with him with you. Getting the kids out is great. My 8 year old has been going with me since she was about 4 and she loves it. My younger daughter, 3 wants to go with me this year too. That new blind we built should make it nice for getting her and my 8 year old both out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swamphunter Posted October 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Re: Taking the boy hunting tomorrow... We're back!!! We went out this morning and sat for an hour. He talked the whole time and I kept reminding him to whisper, but he was well behaved anyways. All we saw was a few flocks of geese but we had a great time. At one point in the hunt I asked him what he wanted to do... meaning are you bored and want to leave and he responded by saying "hunt". He then leaned over and hugged me!! AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreeStandBowHunter Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 Re: Taking the boy hunting tomorrow... I like taking my boys out too. Although I do not take them both out at the same time. My older one does a lot better than the younger. My younger boy is coming along though.
