I started taking my boy when he was 4, just so he could get a taste. He knocked his first gobbler down when he was 7 and another when he was 8.
I have not taken him deer hunting for a tag of his own (he’s joined me on rifle sits and we’ve been successful) as I’m not sure he’s steady enough for a rifle shot. He seems to understand the circle of life and enjoys the meat.
Understanding your child’s maturity is probably the biggest part
