Funny, but I have kills enough deer in my life I can't count them, but I remember EVERY deer I got when I was a kid, from 6 to 12 years old. That's the kind of memory that is true, lasting and pure. My congratulations to him. Those early kills are foundational, and all other hunting skills and field-craft skills are built on the basics learned when I was in those very young years. I think you are a wise man for getting him involved and "hand-on" in the very young years.
