Many people make the same assumptions you do... mainly when people hear hunt thay automatically assume deer are being hunted.
I love hunting small game, squirrels (my favorite), rabbits, duck, and dove mainly. They are extremely good to eat, can be done in the evenings as relaxation... sitting under a tree with your son and your dog just talking quietly until something walks or flies up. It doesn't take much fore thought or planning, just pick up the gun and walk outside.
If you get a nice mess of critter, it doesn't take anyone but yourself to get them back to the house and just a few minutes of time to clean. I always put some back in the freezer to take on camping trips. Grill them over an open fire and just have a blast.
