I think this would be a great help to get the kids into hunting and fishing. I have an idea that if you have some gear (Hunting or Fishing) that you would be willing to give to a kid. That would be great to help.  My thought would be to list what you have in this post and if some one has a kid or kids that want to get into hunting and fishing to give it to them. The best thing is when we have kids that grow out of the clothes to pass them on. I think it would be fair to ask for the shipping cost to send it to them ,  but I would like to see it for the kids and youth hunters and fishers. 

I just ask that it comes with no strings attached and that it is free. I ask that you use this forum to get the gear into the hands of kids who would otherwise not have a chance to get it on their own. (in other words, don't use this to get decoys for YOUR own kids so that you can use it )


I will start by saying I have one or two duck calls that I would be willing to give to a kid. I might also have a few carbon arrows (kids length).

Hope this helps out the youth.

I am going to check to see what else I can give. I know there are some kids in need of hunting and fishing items. If you are looking for items for your kids you can post here too. You never know. What you list some one may have and be willing to give to a kid.  With today money is tight for a lot of people.

I am looking for hunting clothes for my son to be able to go with me this spring turkey and fall deer hunting. Sorry I forgot to add that he is 9 years old and a size 10 in boys. Or anything a little bigger. I can take it down a size or two.

It might be a good idea to note how old your kid/s are, and what size clothing.  :happy1:

My single brother gave all 4 of my kids duck calls for x-mas.  It was a very loud party to say the least.  I would love to donate them but my kids would kill me. 

Great idea!!!  When my kids outgrow their stuff I will be passing there stuff onto other kids.

Anything that is free is worth saving up for.

I was hoping that this would go a little better then this. I know it is the off season ,but thought that with spring coming that people would do some spring cleaning. I would have more to give too , but just gave some items to hunting buddies kids.

I do have a few arrows but they need to be cut and fleched. I have to see if I have any blazer vanes left.

This is a great idea.  We have three growing kids so I will take a look around and see what we have.  What a great way to get more use out of stuff!

That is the way I looked at it. I hope we can get more kids out doors and have fun.
