Youth lifetime licence

[Guest GunTroll]

How many of you took the gamble and bought one for your kid(s)? Mine are under 3 years old and for $200 I would think it is a deal. Any comments? I guess if he grew up and choose not to hunt it is only a $200 loss.....?

I got em for both of my kids!

[brooksjr]

i missed out on my 2 oldest both of which are girls. my son just turned 2 and i do plan on getting his before he hits 3.

If they fish or hunt in their lifetime they will always thank you for it! It is a great deal for sure!

[memphismason]

I debated to long on getting my daughter one and she turned 3 this past Cinco de Mayo. I hope I don't regret it.

I also got my son his way back when it was $100 before he turned 1. He is 10 this year and already using it. Money well spent.

The thing is that it is not a lifetime "regular" liscense but also contains WMA/big game/other benefits as well.

You can not go wring with this package and are doing yourself a disservice by not getting one for your child.

TWRA is one of the few government agencies that really work well and 100% of the money goes to them.

For $200 I think its well worth it, if they do get into hunting/fishing and have to buy the adult sportsman license it will have paid for itself in two years because they are $136 a year. I would get it.

Got my daughter hers for her 3rd birthday.

I also got my daughter hers for her 3rd birthday. We've been fishing a couple of times (she turns 4 next week) and I think it's money well spent. If she gets to the age she needs a license and goes hunting/fishing with me a couple of times it will have paid for itself.

Now I saw the info on adults for the lifetime pass/license. Maybe I missed it but can someone clarify how long the child must be a resident before I would be able to purchase it? He is two now.

Looks like 90 days to me: scroll down on the site

I wish I had gotten my daughers lifetime when she was born. Now it it is going to cost me a lot more.

My daughter will be 6 in a couple of weeks and she enjoys the monthly magazines more than I do.

I got my daughter one and my 1 week old son will have one soon.

I think it is a great investment even if they don't use it the money will still help the TWRA with conservation efforts. But, I'm pretty sure my kids will get their moneys worth.

[Guest GunTroll]

I can't see why not to get one. I see they are still valid if you/the child moves out of state. That is a plus. I guess its a no brainer. I'm getting it soon after we arrive!

[GLOCKMEISTER]

the lifetime licenses are the best thing going... IMHO!

[gregintenn]

I bought them for both my boys. The magazines alone will eventually be worth the price. My oldest is 10, and ahs already gotten quite a bit of use from his license.

[Guest Jcochran88]

You've spent dumber money! If child don't hunt or fish then you out a couple of hundred. but if they pick up the hobby you have easily saved them a couple of thousand over their lifetime.

Small risk ($200) vs. Huge Rewards

It's really an easy decision for me. I'll get my son one

when he arrives.

[Guest GunTroll]

I'm on it! The best part to me is if he leaves the state when he gets older for whatever reason......when he comes back to visit his old dad he can still hunt with me. Sounds like a win win situation to me.

Zombie thread!!

I'm making a copy of his birth certificate to send in now. Thanks for the heads up!

[Guest drv2fst]

Got one for my son but did not think of it for my daughters. I'll need to correct that if there is still time.

What about lifetime NRA memberships? I got my son that as well but not the girls. Need to get those for the girls as well.

I wish my parents would have thought to get mine when I was that young.

Now I'm stuck paying.

[Mike]

Me too.

It's expensive if you wait..
