[QUOTE="fly2cast, post: 172309, member: 656"] I'm Ok with 10/11 year old kids hunting provided that an adult is with to supervise. I've taken my kids out for the past several years during youth season. They carry the gun and I sit/walk behind them the whole time, carrying supplies. They definitely respect the gun and won't shoot unless I give them the OK. My brother just took his first kid out last year and we both agree that it's the best time we've had hunting ever when we take the kids. I have to add that if you don't take your daughters out deer hunting because they are girls and you think they won't like it, you may be mistaken. I had to beg my girls to take hunters safety. They thought they wouldn't like hunting. They found the class very boring but they plowed through it. However, I was surprised how much they learned. When we went out hunting the first year, everything changed when they saw their first doe they could shoot. They were so excited. I brought lawn chairs into the refuge and waited in the evening for the deer to walk around. They were surprisingly great shots and got their deer. This year I applied for a cow moose license for my daughter, but she wasn't drawn. She was really bummed out. Unfortunately my oldest daughter is a senior this year and will be heading off for college this fall. I haven't decided if I should apply for a doe for her this year. It makes me sad thinking about it. [/QUOTE]
