Took my son shooting for the first time!

Going shooting with your kids is always special. When my son asks to go I find the time to take him. He's itching to go hunting with me, so I'm gonna surprise him with an orange hat & vest tonight. We're going after pheasant tommorrow !

That's awesome.

This tread inspired me to talk to my wife about taking my son when the weather warms up (he'll be 6 1/2) and she said "sure, I think it would be great for the both of you"

My little girl is only 4 and doesn't really show much intrest yet.... But I'm working on it

I still can't convince the wife to go

I'm dying to take my daughter, few more years, she's two. Fun to read the comments as I was thinking about the first sandpit sessions as my dad and I were walking around bird hunting this afternoon. Keep the sport alive!

I don't have my own kids, but I take my little sister who just turned 18. She's a darned good shot with the .38 Chief Spl, but her new love is a 1911 .45.

She's a Damn good shot with that 1911 too! Put us both to shame at the steel-plates at MRA

Arrrr

Good morning all.

Im holding a futur shooter on my knee right now.
She is only a year and a half but her day will come!
Just wanted to say I am glad to have started this thread.
It looks like we stirred up some great memories !

Shoot straight my friends!

That really sounds great, taking your son shooting! Glad he enjoyed it.

I keep an eye out for a small .22 rifle for my daughter who is 5. It'll still be a few years before she's ready for it, but I do look forward to it!

Don't remind me. My only consolation is that I taught her everything she knows.

My 16 yo daughter really managed it to get up early this morning and
participate in our club's pin shoot (of course, she's a member).
She did pretty good knocking them pins with the M686 and the .30M1 Carbine,
and we all had a blast.

I took my 14 yr old granddaughter to the range today. While I was playing with my .44mag, she was hitting 2 inch disks at about 30 yards with her Henry lever .22...no scope.

She's really getting pretty good !
