Interested to hear perspective on hunts with youth. The last few years we have had kids (13 & 11 this year) with us and they are enjoying the fall hunts. Although it has been a little discouraging to have them battle some of the known issues of crowded mountains and not having the energy to go over "one more ridge.." Last season we decided to target the "youth only" hunt units which they can harvest a whitetail doe or 3 pt buck. We got into lots of animals but they were all mule deer.. turns out almost all the units in the youth hunts areas have no whitetail.
So wondering on thoughts - we have reasonable expectations that a harvest isn't going to happen every year in Wa for them but want to at least increase their chances.

- Do we try a guide this year? Any recommendations on guided trips with youth?
- I've heard to knock on a farmers door? I've been told to try this with kids, but it feels quite random.
- Move to Idaho or Montana?
