Great topic. The young are deffinetly our future when it comes to hunting and shooting. We loose inflewence in the government when our numbers dwindle, not to mention the quality of young men and women that develope from our sports. I like to take my kids hunting and shooting. Most of them are grown now, but I like to take there boy and girls friends to the skeet range and teach them to shoot. Its not just a good way further our sport but also a great way to get to know them and develope relationships with my kids friends. ie.... see what kind of people they are hanging out with.
My oldest daughter is 26 and married. She has returned to the shooting sports, now that she is out of college and has begun her adult life. She has brought her husband into the fold, and now they both shoot skeet with me. They have also located a skeet range near where they live and shoot on their own.
I also believe that the hunting and shooting sports, and the people associated with them, had something to do with my son becoming a marine.
Yes it is very hard to compeat with the inflewences young people have today, but very worth while.
