he has to be the one shooting the animal under your supervision.

Unless you are under the age of 18, he needs to do the shooting.

Wouldn't be a youth hunt if you pulled the trigger.

hey i talked to the game warden about that and he said if your kid has wounded it and you see its getten away u should take it down its kinda a grey area they dont want to see 5 deer wounded till the youngster finally gets a kill shot

It is grey, but in the name of ethics the best follow up shot available is best for the animal. CH, if you son shoots any animal that you have a tag for, you'll need to cut that tag on your license. Trust me, it's a great feeling!!
