Just an idea ...


Recommended Posts

Great idea to get the next generation involved, my first shoot of the season every year is father & son/daughter day.

 

In all my shoots anyone under the age of 16 shoots for free with a paying adult not only does it bring the next generation through, its time spent together as a family.

 

i am all for it :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

First, let me say that one of the great things about hunting in my eyes is-getting the hell away from other humans! Out in the field, just me and my bird/gun/bow But, be that as it may, I have always sucked it up and brought any youngster who wanted to go. When I was a kid just getting into Falconry, I asked a few guys if the would let me go beat for them and such. They were always like-screw off, kid. Well I promised myself that when I was "all grown up" I wouldn't be like those guys. To this day I am proud to say that I am not, "like those guys", whether we are talking horses, falconry, or what all, I always go out of my way to let the kids tag along. Sometimes, its even a little fun...

Its a good idea, when i started out i didn't know anyone that actually got out and did oat. I had to start out off my own back, you soon get contacts tho and it doesn't take long before you find a hunting partner. If you put your self out there you eventually meet like minded people :thumbs: Just got to get your self out there even if its on your own, when you learn for your self its slower but its the best way :thumbs: make your own mistakes....when you know what your doing and have your own gear you soon get invites....infact you can invite people out your self :thumbs:

fantastic, that was the reply i got from my mates 11 year old the first night i took him out , i also think it's a great idea to encourage youngsters into our sport, it needs regenerated , cant wait till we have a change of office at westminster, maybe they will overturn this ridiculous ban, to leave us free to hunt and pass on our skills as the hunter, to our kids , like our fathers did for us. ps fuc- the ban
