Spot on Tahr. outinabout I wouldn't going worrying to much yet with your son losing interest after only a couple of unsuccessful hunts, he will still be learning lots from just being out there with you.
My old man started taking me & my brother out hunting/tramping when we were about 5. We went out on plenty of adventures over the next 10 or so years and not once did Dad shoot a deer, if fact I never even got to see a wild deer in all those years! It never seemed to put me off though as come the next school holidays I was always nagging Dad to go hunting again. Come 16 though I booked straight in to get my firearms licence and was now more determined than ever to get out on my own and see/shoot my first deer. Got my first deer a year later.
