He'll remember that moment more vividly than if he'd taken the shot. It will also impact him more. Great call!

I had a similar thing Saturday evening with my son. Had a buck and doe come in from a direction that I didn't feel comfortable with him shooting. I told wait till they moved a little closer but instead they ran the other way. I'm glad he understood why and I hope he learned something he could keep with him. I love teaching my kids how to do it right.Comment
