Absolutely let her get involved in the hunting experience. If she wants to then let her. The world if full of female hunters and at age 10 there isn't much difference between girls and boys (from an excitment and interest standpoint). Either they want to do something or they don't. If you wait til they grow up you may never get a chance to introduce her to the outdoors. Once they get to be a few years older and begin to pay attention to what the other kids of their same gender are doing and thinking, they begin to develope ideals often based on what their peers think and expect and not so much what they think personally. The time to introduce them to new things is when they are excited about it and haven't chosen which side of the fence to stand on yet. Let them make up their own mind whether they enjoy something or not rather than having others tell them how they should behave or act. One thing I would advise after raising a daughter who was much the same and wanted to give hunting a try is to not only introduce her to the "killing" part of hunting but spend a great deal of time teaching them HOW to hunt and about the out doors in general. Get out of the trucks and hike on your hunts and teach them how to read sign and really enjoy the whole experience. I started taking my daughter bow hunting and waterfowl hunting with me several years before she could hunt and rarely would I bother to kill anything when she was along. More importantly we would spend time watching animals and birds and build that excitement of being close to game or following sign and jumping deer out of their beds. One of my most cherished memories will be of sitting up in a double tree stand with my 10 yr old daughter and seeing the look on her face after her first experience of watching a nice whitetail buck walked right under our tree not having a clue we were 16' above his head. She learned to get excited about the hunt and that the kill was the culmination of lots of work and patience paying off. When she turned 13 she was excited to try hunting herself and that first season she took an antelope doe after a 1/2 mile stalk through the sage brush and a 1 shot kill. That was one proud 13yr old girl. The next season when she was 14 she killed an antelope buck in Oct. and then on thanksgiving weekend we went over east to the Missouri breaks and she killed a cow elk with a 125 yd heart shot. I have never been so proud in my life. All the time spent in the field and at the shooting range was just part of the process. The next year she entered high school and everything changed and her interest in hunting was replaced with other life interests. I never did push her to do more hunting but I will bet you anything that someday she will get back into it or at the very least be excited about it with her own children because that seed was planted. Just go easy on them and be patient and keep in mind that these kids don't know how to hunt, its our job to teach them and enjoy the time spent doing it whether a kill is involved or not. My recommendation to you would be that you take your daughter by yourself and leave the boys behind. This will be special time for the both of you and believe me it won't be too many years later when they're growing up and becomming whoever their going to be that you'd give your eye teeth to be able to spend that kind of quality time with her again. My 10 yr old will now be 18 in a Dec. and I am going home tonight to look at senior pictures. It's quite overwhelming some days to think she will be going off to college next fall and becoming a young adult and be out on her own. The best part is when I need a pick me up I'll be able to look back through the hunting album and look at the pics of her napping in the goose blind or holding her first steelhead and it will get me through. You bet take your daughter hunting, the key word being hunting. Don't get to caught up in having to kill something, if the hunt ends in a kill so be it. If it doesn't then terrific..Let her make the choice at the time and support her whether she decides to pull the trigger or not. Enjoy...RJ in Montana
