Love it when kids are hunting. Turkey hunting is great for kids. Fine son you have there.

Very cool! I have a 5 year old that is chomping at the bit to get out. Not letting him shoot this year but he will be in the blind this weekend.

Congrats, bet he was excited.
Probably not as excited as I was. The bird came to us on a string, and at 20 yards started half-strutting back and forth. We're in the blind, and Grayson is trying to swing the gun back and forth to get a bead, and I hit the slate to stop the tom. I said "You've got to shoot it now" He did, and the tom rolled, got up, and ran away. It got about 70 yards out and tipped over. Then yesterday morning, my 10-yr old got his tom, 23 lb 9 1/2" beard. Good way to finish our turkey season.P1010386.jpgP1010382.jpg
