Youth Who Hunt & Shoot Can Positively Influence Peers

A new research project commissioned by the Hunting Heritage Trust and National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) found that “the more familiar youth are with individuals their own age who hunt and target shoot, approved the more likely they will be to support and participate in these activities.”

Parents know that the activities we choose for our children and support them in doing affect their development. And, thumb of course, we  should be aware of who our children are hanging with after school. So, it makes perfect sense that not only should we be role models for our children and their friends, but we ought to be training our children to be role models for their friends, too. Participation in safe and ethical shooting and hunting bolsters relationships and forms lifelong skills. -[source]
