He was super pumped about the whole day he even got to use a real knife to help me clean it once in the garage. He sawed almost all the way through one of the leg bones near the front foot since he couldn't reach the actual meat. I hope everyone one day has the opportunity to experience this type of situation with all their kids, hunting is so much more fullfilling with family. My daughter is almost 2, in a couple more years maybe she will be out their with us as well.
