In reply to Bill.

Thanks Bill. I’ve mentored at the Rich Williams turkey camp in 23 for a couple of years. It’s always fun to see a kids face light up the first time he hears a turkey gobble. Take care.

In reply to 33AD. Absolutely. You should get in touch with Joe at Shoot for Life (follow the links in the article) or check out the Game and Fish Regs. Once a youth hunter takes a hunter safety course, there are many different youth camps for the different game species. This unit we hunted in was actually 20B as well. There is lots of good country there. Good luck on your hunt. Ben

In reply to Howard Levett. Thanks Howard. Hunting gives me the same good feeling that fishing does. Sometimes it's nice just to be outside. Ben

Kudos to all that help or mentor at a hunting camp. It is fun and rewarding mentoring our youth (the future of our sport). Youth Spring Turkey camps are just around the corner.

Great opportunity – will have to look into it for my oldest (5). I certainly have no business teaching him archery!

What unit was the hunt in? I am anxious for hunt here in a few weeks in 20B, though it will be “new school” (rifle).

I stand by the belief just getting outside is the real reward – the trophy/meat is the icing on the cake.

Thanks for sharing!

What a great time this must have been. I’ve never been a big hunter and have never seen a Javelina but, wow. Nice job Ben.
