I've had people tell me they want to get into hunting, or that while they aren't hunters, they want their kids to get into hunting. After recommending some hunter safety classes and research, what species do you recommend as a start? A buddy today said he wants to take his kids duck hunting, and I suggested that might not be the best choice - IMHO. It's cold and wet, early in the morning, and depending on where you go, you might be out in the middle of nowhere for a while (if you are dropped off by a boat). And it requires some gear that is useful for much else (waders). I thought about upland bird hunting - less equipment (and it is useful for other stuff), better weather and on solid ground. But there is a risk of a new hunter shooting a dog.
Thoughts?
