Ok boys how do you do it? Made the mistake of getting out here to early and ill be damned if he hasn't found a way to drop or kick everything in a 5 foot radius. And with the way he is moving it looks like I have a matador in here with me.

Sounds like little dude doesn't understand the concept of deer hunting.

Looks like sugar may be the problem. I still give mine the same shite and hes 11 now. I've found that after they shoot or shoot at their first deer the whole be quiet and sit still thing finally clicks in their little brain. Also remember when you take them in the woods with you its for them not you. When mine got bored or wouldnt sit still we got down and walked around the area we were in or went back to the camp. Whatever you do dont get aggravated because they will get discouraged quick. Good luck and congrats on a little one to pass the love of outdoors down to!

I’m no expert but I think I found your problem right here. Find snacks with less sugar. I always got salted peanuts, cheese and biscuits as a kid. The salt in the peanuts will also alleviate some bathroom breaks.

Tie a tarsal gland on a string and his boot. Soak it in buck piss and have him drag that fricker around.

DS, i-pad, tablet, i-phone. Or keep them up late the night before and they will sleep while on the stand

Gameboy for my son. That was many years ago.
Drop the sugars and use good snacks.

Mine sat in my lap, occasionally I’d find myself squeezing fairly tightly..

I let mine bring water, a kindle (because most games require data, so he can read and play a few games) and a slim Jim.
