quote: X-Ring, you are quite right: take the kids with you when hunting and fishing. It�s not only a way of traditioning the hunting heritage but also a rather good education. The kids learn a lot about wild-life and hunting, they get a good hobby and achieve a good sense of responsibility - and as a parent you get a better relation with your son or daughter. And you will have rather fun together with them. Go ahead - cut a fishing-rod and buy the kids an air-gun! Fritz K. | |||

X-Ring - You're right on!! I would wager that most of us were introduced to hunting/shooting by parents or other relatives. Nowadays, it seems that many people are too busy to invest the time it takes to interest the young ones in those same things. The next generation will only want to play soccer unless we really get involved with them now. Having no children of our own, my wife and I got as many of the nieces and nephews involved in outdoor pursuits (most of their parents 'didn't have time'), and, I do not imagine a father or mother would have been more proud than I was at being present for their first fair-chase kill. Amazingly, all of these guys turned out to be productive members of society; not an axe murderer or druggie in the bunch! Think there's a connection? Another thing that we're battling now is children being taught in the media and school that guns are "bad", so, it's our duty to inform them correctly. I about fell out of my chair when my niece showed me her 11th grade history book which had the revisionist version of the Second Amendment. | |||

My son and my self we did spend time together when he was groin up hunting, fishing and just go camping. Do you know what he is doing now ? He is park ranger and im proud of him. Only wrong is, I can not be with him. Karel | ||

My son, who is 19, has been in the woods since he was about 5 and shooting since he was big enough to shoulder a rifle with a cut down stock. | |||

Right on guys I was hoping to here just these kind of responces. It is our duty as parents and hunters to make sure there is intrest in our sport in the future, My daughter loves to hunt with me. Thus far she has choisen not to shoot a deer. She does however like shooting gophers. Kids are great hunting buddies. They just drink up the info as you show them the art of the stalk, following a blood trail. how to feild dress game Esc.Esc. Keep up the good work guys/gals X-Ring | ||

My 15-year old son loves to shoot, hunt, and fish. My 19-year old daughter shoots and fishes but won't kill anything - that is a personal choice and is OK with me. However, I feel that where I do the most good with the next generation is teaching Hunter Education and being a rifle and shotgun merit badge couselor with the Boy Scouts. I hope all of you will consider teaching Hunter Education or working with the Boy Scouts. It takes some of your time, but can give you a lot of personal satisfaction. | ||
