A boy’s first amazing duck hunt! [Video]

Tripp Halford’s dad is a duck hunter!  During a video shoot, young Tripp joined his Dad, Spencer, on a duck hunt last year.  Watch as Tripp enjoys the time with his Dad and Grandfather.  You can see the excitment on his face!  As I watched this video it brought back tons of memories of days spent afield with my Dad.  Take a kid hunting or fishing.  Show them what the great big outdoor world has to offer.  Just stopping to watch the sunset or helping a kid catch a frog along a creek bank can instill a lifelong love for nature.  I bet Tripp will enjoy duck hunting just as much as his Dad when he gets older.  For now, he just thinks they are hunting.  Dad knows better!
