nope, he only safely hunts mature animals we will eat....so basically deer in land where he will get permission (from friends/family). The wild turkeys around here are tough, or so I have heard....as long as we have been married DH hasn't gotten any. On the rare occasion he will go hunting with friends for pigs or goats, but most times he won't get one or if he does it is because someone he knows wants the meat. He is very responsible and so are his hunting companions, so lately I have been letting him take DS more. DS loves going, in fact, two nights ago he took out his hunting clothes and has it ready on his bed "just in case"

doesn't the boy know that I am exhausted from the trip, camping, preschool, helping my sister...and oh, ya, CHRISTMAS

I like hunting too, but for the nature walk. I can spot the animals, but I don't like guns and don't care to learn, so when they do their thing I take my time to catch up and by the time I reach there it is over. I don't mind the cleaning part or the preparing of the meat....and being with the guys is fun
