I need some ideas. I'm trying to get a kid w/AD a chance to get a turkey. A gameboy will only work for a short time. Saturday once the hens left the decaoys and the toms stopped gobbling he was done and we were out before 10:00. Sunday was a little better. I was able to call in a bunch of crows and he enjoyed that. Then I was able to call in two geese. They cricled three times and landed 100 yards out, then they walked with in twenty yards of the blind. By luck, a ren flew into the blind and all heck broke loose. I grabbed the gun and the kid was swatting at the bird trying to get it out of the blind. With all of the excitment for the morning he was done shortly after 11:00 and was ready to go. Please give me some ideas, we are going out again next Friday.

It's tough for sure. The boy I hunted with was already talking about leaving at 7:30 Saturday morning ! We had birds all around us going nuts. I just think he wasn't interested this year.
We talk about everything under the sun, Game boy works for a little bit, I pooint out everything I can see or hear...food and drink helps some.
You Hit Squad guys who spent any time with Brian know he's a real character.

10 a.m. is pretty good. Usually I'm ready to go by 9.

Out at 10:00 or 11:00 is four or five hours of hunting. That's enough for any kid IMO.

The game-boys keep my boys entertained all day long (though they only get to use them when in the blind or on long car rides - they're not an everyday toy at our house). It's hunger pains every two hours from my oldest eating machine that puts a damper on us!
