Title: My Youngest Son
Post by: ccleroy on March 21, 2016, 07:08:32 AM
The single greatest hunt I've had, the roller coaster of emotions felt are hard to describe. No gobbling on the limb but about an hour after fly down I decided to call and the game began.......not long after my little 5 y/o had his first longbeard in his sights at 29 yards with his little .410 and absolutely crushed him. It was a beautiful hunt that ended with one happy little boy and basket-cased father.

That is just awesome. Congrats to you both. That smile on both of your faces says it all and is exactly why I love turkey hunting, especially with youths. Cant wait until next year to take my daughter out.

Best post of the year!!! Man that is awesome. I can't wait for my kids to be big enough. I have a single shot .22/.410 combo for my daughter who is 6. But she is still way too small. She is tiny though weighing in at 35 lbs. maybe next year.

That is great! Have a five year old myself. We're are waiting a few more years but he is shooting a 22 now and driving momma nuts with a box call. Love the pictures. Think you and bugman have the two best pictures of the year so far.
