Broken,
As you so aptly point out there is NO substitute for a parent that means what he says and says what he means!!

My best regards,

 Youth Christmas Gift Gun

This is too funny
Today I just heard (after my last post yesterday) that Wisconsin is considering a new age for deer hunting (and other forms) 10 yrs old!!! Here is the catch the Parent needs to be within arms reach and there can only be ONE gun between the two of them. The WDNR says they believe it will be even safer than what we have now (at 12 you can hunt within yelling and visual distance) WOW aint that freaky! Ya think they read my post?? Laughing out loud

Blueman, those first pictures where taken right after delivery. The tractor now has 50 hours and a scratch or two.

I would love to have a 50th anniversary. But it will have to wait until my youngest graduates from college. My all time favorite corvette is the '62. Maybe one of these days.

Have a Merry Christmas, Dave.

Damn Gander Mountain....they HAD to put all of their treestands on sale, 25% off! Now I am looking at a double ladder stand that I can take my son with me (even off season) and "hunt" deer, turkey, etc. This might be better than getting him a gun this year anyway.

 Youth Christmas Gift Gun

Jumping in on this conversation a little late, but I vote for the bow!

When I was about 12 or 13, I tried archery at a boy scout camp. Fell in love. Had already been shooting with my dad many times with our .22 and tried some bigger calibers (but didn't like them because I was really too small yet for the kick and weight).

But archery captured me. A year or so later, he gave me a 6' straight bow he got from his boss (who had hand made it many many years earlier). I was in heaven.

That bow eventually got broken in an altercation with a car (while riding my bike to the local jr college to use their archery range), but I never forgot how much more I enjoyed shooting the bow than the gun.

It's one heck of a lot cheaper to shoot too. You chase your ammo down and reuse it.. Smile

Kyvette
I just happen to know a guy (old buisness partner/godfather of one of my kids) That has just about all the parts for a 50th aniv. He used to be in the rebuilding mode of vettes till he moved north and became a logger Laughing out loud Dont ask! He still has them and for what ever reason I dont know. I know for a fact he would sell them.
Logging is not too prosperous recently for him. His employee just got whacked by a tree and he is by himself now. Dont know if your into things like that? I bet he would give it to ya for a decent price

AS for getting a boy a gun, my grandfather used to say, "buy a gun according to the kid's head size, if he has a huge melon go ahead and get him a big gun, but if he has a small head, buy him a a bb or pellet gun." I have no idea why I am posting this but maybe it will make sense to you Blueman.

I started my daughters off with the Red Rider BB gun. Good learning tool.

Here's a follow-up to an oldie...my eldest son turns 11 this month; he is getting a Savage .308 to hunt deer with next year, but allow him to learn to shoot high power with this year...I love the Accu trigger on these Savage's. I've shot these guns out of the box with a lot of success. What does anyone think for an entry level deer rifle?
