re: Question for the OB Dads

My son is five and loves to go with me. However, I know that when he goes (deer hunting, that is) that we really don't get any serious hunting done while he is that age. I will let him play games on my phone when he gets bored - and they all do. But, in reality I may only really sit in a stand with him for no more than an hour or so. We then will get down and walk all the while I try to teach him about reading signs, etc.

At this age, they will only enjoy a little but it really is just spending time with the little one. After all, it won't be long until they prefer to stay in their room versus hanging out with Dad.

However, my son loves any hunting as long as I keep the time in moderation. Now fishing is a different story...
