GomerJr asked me why he couldn't do that if we saw a deer. I told him he can shoot his first deer when he's physically capable of holding the gun (on a rest), aiming it and shooting it on his own, and that it would mean a lot more to him when he was older, than me holding it and just letting him reach over and touch the trigger.

I blame social media

I feel like you should be able to legibly write your name on a piece of paper before you end a large mammal's life with a large caliber firearm. I know I'm weird for thinking that beers

Our land always had a 16 yr. Old rule for carrying a gun for deer. That may have been a little much but i started at 14. But by then I knew the woods and didn't need help. I've taken my son starting at 8 and I'm not too proud of that. He can't even skin his own squirrel at this point cause we've only gone a few times. I guess I'm raising a city Hunter, but by the conversions on here he'll have a lot of company.

There's a big difference in taking them with you, and letting them reach over and tap the trigger of the gun you're holding and aiming, and telling everyone "he killed his first deer."

But then again, if I decide to shoot a deer in my back yard tonight.
I will. And I don't care how chuck feels about it.

My biggest issue with kid sports is parents who are bad sports.

I watched a friend's grandson play baseball this spring. Other team was obviously better players.

In the 2nd inning, with a 9 run lead, the other team's base coaches were still pushing their team to steal bases. Just don't make sense to me.
