Youth Hunting on Leased Land: Safety, Mentorship, and Liability

For many hunters, introducing the next generation to the outdoors is one of the most rewarding experiences. Leased land can be an excellent place to bring youth hunters, but it comes with added responsibilities.

Here’s what to keep in mind when bringing kids to hunt on leased land:

🦺 Safety first

  • Review firearm safety, tree stand rules, and basic field awareness before heading out. Always keep young hunters under close supervision.

📄 Know the lease terms

  • Not all leases allow guests or youth hunters. Double-check your agreement and get landowner approval before bringing anyone new onto the property.

✍ Focus on mentorship

  • Remember, youth hunts are about teaching and enjoying the outdoors, not just harvesting game. Take time to explain tracking, scouting, and ethical decision-making.

💥 Liability protection

  • Accidents with youth hunters, even minor ones, can quickly lead to complicated situations. Hunting lease insurance ensures both you and the landowner are protected in case something goes wrong.

By preparing well and leading with patience, you’ll create a safe and memorable experience for young hunters while protecting the access and opportunities that leased land provides. After all, today’s youth hunters are tomorrow’s conservationists. Visit huntleasebind.com to learn more!
