Maybe take him out with you in the old pickup, and have him dress less like a city slicker. Get him a seed cap and an old barn coat. Make him leave the phone in the truck while you hunt. Then you need to get permission on land loaded with PLD's. Put him in the middle of wild bird heaven, and when he gets a lot of opportunities at close-flushing unpressured birds he'll connect sooner or later.
He was raised in Minneapolis, and he has these goofy friends that he communicates with constantly. He will never be without his phone.I can hunt with him very late season. Maybe in the camper. He only hunts one week.
He usually shows up late December.
That smile says it all! Please tell him congratulations!!!
He doesn't dress like a city slicker.He gets several decent opportunities every year.He just can't hit anything, not even close. He took 6 years off when he was 16. Kind of a strange kid. He has short arms and short legs.I think he needs a special fitted gun.id like to take him to a preserve, but I'm kind of against those places.
Score!
He finally got a rooster. Made a good clean shot.
I think he learned a lot this trip.He grew up in a huge city,with wierd parents. His dad doesn't hunt or fish, or anything outdoors.He got aggressive this trip, and that helped.I don't know yet if he's going to be a birdhunter, but he's made progress this year.I have another nephew who turns 9 in March, who wants to hunt.So next fall will be his opportunity.
Thank you! Long time coming!! He was really stoked after he got a rooster. He was afforded a very easy shot, because I blocked for him.I also had him wear camo.
