Please review First Point Hunting Rules. Bo will go over the animals that can be harvested for the Youth Hunt. We will be hunting Noon Friday thru Noon Sunday. You will need to bring a short tripod, popup or build a ground blind. Again, these animals are smart, so make sure it is brushed in good for a successful hunt. First Point allows hunting with compound and trad bows only. Please make sure you are proficient. Feel free to bring a target for practice. We will also be bringing a couple with us. Most of all have FUN!!!
