How To
How to teach my son hunt
This is a very common problem. Parents want their children to be able to shoot guns but don't know where to begin. Safety should be your first concern when teaching your child to use a gun. You should make sure your child knows what to do in case of an accident. You should also make sure he understands the rules of shooting. He should be taught to keep his finger away from the trigger when he is ready to fire. You should immediately call 911 if he shoots himself in error.
Next is to show him how different weapons work. This includes rifles, shotguns, pistols, and airguns. Understanding the differences between weapons will help your child choose the best weapon for him. You should take into account its size, weight and power when choosing a weapon. A.22 caliber rifle would make a great starter rifle. It's small enough for beginners to hold, yet powerful enough to kill pests like squirrels. A 12 gauge shotgun, on the other hand is big enough to be held comfortably by adults and still have plenty of power to kill wildlife. Children who are learning to shoot can use airguns because they are quiet and simple to use.
Your child should practice shooting at targets. He should practice shooting from different angles and positions in order to discover which position works best for him. Make sure he is familiar with how to properly clean and maintain the weapon.
Once your kid has mastered the basics, you can move on to hunting. There are many ways you can teach your child to hunt. One option is to take your child out on the open field with you. Another option is to buy a gun from a store and show him how to load and unload it. You can also get a dog for your child to train. Dogs are great because they obey and follow orders quickly. Dogs are fun to play with, and they can even become best friends with your child.
If none or all of these options appeal to them, you can hire someone else to teach your child. However, this is a costly option that requires lots of babysitting.
