Youth Turkey Hunter

http://www.mdc.mo.gov/hunt/

KYLE: I've been hunting for a long time, ever since I was really little, about five. And I mainly hunt and fish. I guess I prefer this more than watching on TV or playing video games or going to the mall or stuff like that.

We started hearing some gobbles so I started calling but there was one that came up on my left and he was really coming. I just sat and watched but unfortunately he kind of went away.

MOM: When Kyle was calling that turkey in, my hands were sweating and I was shaking, my knees were shaking and I kept thinking the guy, he's coming closer, he's coming closer and all of a sudden then Kyle would call and he just; he just was gone. And I'll tell you for a whole hour, all the cares in the world were gone. It was just so much fun!

KYLE: It's just like a pure adrenaline rush. It's a lot of fun. You get to see stuff that normally you may see on TV but you get to see it in a real life perspective.

I think its building my character. It's really helping you out. It's somewhat like a stress relief. You get to just relax and have fun while shooting or fishing or stuff like that. You really don't have to do homework. It's more of a relaxation time.

And it's not all about killing. It's more about having a fun time and getting outside. Just kind of sit down and be safe and have fun.
