I started going with my dad when I was 4-5, didn’t kill my first deer until I was 11( missed a handful of em the previous year). Squirrel hunted most evening after school and daddy or one of his good friends took me deer hunting every chance they could until I was old enough to drive myself. His desire to go dropped off drastically once I could take myself, he used to turkey hunt a little and we went a handful of times when I was younger but can’t remember ever hearing one so I didn’t catch that bug till later in life and pretty much learned on my own. I plan on taking my kids whenever they wanna go just like he did for me and hopefully they enjoy it as much as I do but if they don’t that’s ok too
