The NWTF is encouraging its members to get younger generations involved in hunting. Here are some tips to follow when taking a youth hunting:
  • Make hunting a casual adventure rather than a forced march through rough terrain.
  • Give the young person his or her own turkey call.
  • Teach them how to call, then let them call in the woods (do this where it won't interfere with or spook birds you plan to hunt later).
  • Teach them how to blow an owl hooter call and explain why it is used.
  • Take them scouting with you and teach them to roost birds in the evenings.
  • Let a child locate a gobbler with an owl call. It's awesome for them to actually communicate with a gobbler.
  • Teach a child what turkey signs looks like. Teach them the difference between gobbler and hen tracks.
  • Watch tasteful turkey hunting videos together and discuss any questions or concerns they may have.
  • When it's time to actually go hunting, make sure they are dressed comfortably.
  • When setting up on a gobbler, let them sit between your legs. This allows the adult to control the gun and whisper instructions with minimal movement.
