My Son discovered hunting

[Roosters]

I am an avid pheasant hunter. But, until lately my boys have not been real excited about going with me..... get up too early, too cold, etc. They have went in the past, but have not shot any.... mainly due to not being ready for the flush and not paying attention to what the dog was doing.
Last Saturday my oldest son turned 14 yrs old. I told him that myself and a friend were going hunting. He said he would like to go along. So the 3 of us went out. My son ended up killing the 2 roosters he shot at. 3 of us killed 6. Was unable to locate one . But I think my son's "hunting switch" got turned on. He is already asking when we are headed out next. Can't wait to add to the hunting memories that we had this weekend.

fantastic! some of my fondest memories of my dad were my early hunting days.

he has been bitten by the bug, the Rooster bug. Better than getting spurred though. :10sign:

From the father of 2 sons, I will say the best hunting partner you will ever find is your son or son's. Give them the first chance to go with you, you will never regret it.........Bob

Maybe there is still hope for my older boyI expected him to be ready to shoot em' at 7yo just like I was but he isn't interested. Maybe he'll come around in a few years.

Thanks for sharing your story.
