In Tennessee kids younger than 12 get to hunt without a license, as an incentive:)

Right. Early training for future careers. My best friend's son is now a sniper in the Marines. He used to pop up at us from the most unlikely places when we were out in the garden - the kid had learned to be nearly invisible.

I wish I had been taught to hunt - if nothing else for the outdoor training and the familiarity with guns.

That's how it was when I was growing up in Minnesota--not sure how it is now with the creeping liberalism up there.
