My son is turning 11 tomorrow and has tagged along on several hunts, but tomorrow he is gonna get a chance to be a shooter!
I gave him a new 870 20 Ga tonight as an early present and he was so pumped he couldn't speak for a bit. I don't know who is more excited, him or me!
Wish us luck, it has been really slow up here in northern Whatcom County.
Hope to post a pic of his first kill tomorrow night!

Good luck! Hope you guys slay them, but remember the memories are more important than the kill :tup:

make sure to take pictures. So you can share with all of us.
I'm hoping to have my son hunt next year.
Good luck and enjoy the time together.

Good luck on the hunt. I can't wait to take my girls still a little young. I'm pretty sure the younger one will be a killer.

What a great day! We got to the boat launch about 2 hours early, got out to the blind by 5 AM. We set up and waited for the opening bell....
Weather was clear and cold, almost nothing moving. I was hoping beyond hope that we would get lucky and my boy would get the chance to take a crack at at least one duck, any kind would do....We were getting pretty bored and then out of nowhere this beautiful Pintail Drake floated into the pocket as pretty as you please. I could not believe my eyes! I was telling the boy SHOOT IT! SHOOT NOW!! He couldn't see the duck! Finally he looked down at the water and realized the duck was RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM! He was looking UP! Finally he shoots and the duck keeled over right there....1 shot 1 kill! He was so excited I thought he was going to explode! I was relieved the duck cooperated ( committed suicide )
We jumped in the boat and went to get it. We hung out the rest of the morning and all we saw was a couple of mallards that flew by, I whacked the hen, OOPS! Still a great day all in all.

That's my boy!
I am one proud momma!

We were sitting in the truck about to drive home, he looks over at me and says, " Dad....when I have kids, I am going to take them duck hunting just like you"
Mission accomplished!
-
I dunno what's more cool - the actual pictures of your boy, or the fact that there are so many pictures which show how proud a parent you are. Very cool. 8)

That is the gun, but was not where we got it. Kesselrings

Great story and great pictures. A drake pintail for the first duck :tup:

Awesome pin, took me 19 years to get one in breeding plumage to go with the hen I got in high school.
-
Very cool I was looking forward to seeing the photos today!

Good job on the hunt, love seeing kids get their first kills. Does this mean a taxi bill for Christmas?
