I would change "force" to encourage. If I tried to force my kids to do stuff, they'd shut down and likely would never consider it again. You gotta know their personalities. I have to echo the spend time with your dad and will throw in your siblings as well. Plan trips and take them. You don't know when you or they won't be able to.

I second that. I ruint my son on fishing with 16 hour days on the boat....he has only recently trusted me to go fishing again. One of the biggest regrets in my life.

And take your daughters fishing and hunting. Girls without daddy issues are heads and shoulders above those with them...very few strippers I ever knew spent time in a duck blind with their daddy when they were girls....
