Jace Seeger, 7, Red Lake Falls, Minn., shot his first wild turkey while hunting with his uncle, Ben Pahlen (left), Warren, Minn., and Cory Loeffler, St. Hilaire, Minn. “I couldn’t believe how determined Jace was to get his bird,” Loeffler writes. “He wouldn’t stop for anything.” There's no minimum age for kids to hunt turkeys in Minnesota, as long as they're accompanied by an adult.
