My husband and I have two daughters (no sons) and he is hoping they will hunt with him when they get older.

Sure, all three of my kids ( 2 boys and a girl) started hunting with me. At first, they just kind of tagged along to see what it was all about. I always tried to make it fun for them, even if I passed on getting a shot in the process. Later, they each learned to help dress out any game, and once they were able to meet my standards for safety, and accuracy, they joined in the hunt. I have many many fond memories of each of them, sitting in duck blinds, in a tree or ground stand, and watching them still hunt for deer etc. I have many photo's of my kids hunting, each has a favorite picture, my daughter has two, the first black bear she ever shot, with her and I kneeling behind it, and a photo of her "processing" the black bear as it hung in our garage.
Teach your kids to hunt, and you give them a lifetime of memories.
Shoot safe

I have one daughter that hunts with most every type of gun made, plus bows. The other daughter is not interested but does go to the range with me. I also have a grand daughter that loves to shoot and wants to go hunting. As soon as she gets out of college we will have a hunt planned. My wife goes with me and the boys on occasion but is not a real enthusiastic huntress.

I have two daughters that are avid shooters. And they also hunt. Would not call them total “fair weather hunters”. However during real bad weather your will find them doing other things than being with dad in the timber or a duck blind. Most of their friends are not into shooting sports-but has never been an issue. Neither are “tom boys”. Just average teenage girls. Cell phones-boys-pc chatting-boys-etc.

We proportion the affection of the activities and the great outdoors with our childrens and we've started out an outdoors club in the process the college gadget. My daughter is only sufficiently previous to pass bow looking and went this 300 and sixty 5 days yet did not see a single deer so she is making plans on looking an enhanced spot next 300 and sixty 5 days and attempting lower back.

I have one daughter, and she hunted with me a lot before she got married and moved away.
She still would like to hunt with me, but it hasn't worked out yet, due to the distance.
My wife has hunted with me many times (with a bow and with a rifle), and all my children have hunted with me.
There shouldn't be any reason that your daughters don't grow up wanting to hunt, as long as the image of what their dad does is a positive one. With us, it's like eating game meat, it's just what they've grown up with (beef still tastes a bit unusual to us!).

I have a couple of girl cousins that hunted with their dad all the time. They are good deer hunters. They are completely normal girly girls otherwise.
My wife sometimes goes with me....she doesn't mind the hunting part, it's the cold she can't deal with!

we are a family of hunters
Hubby and I take our daughter out a lot deer, rabbit squirrel, bird (she loves pheasant and venison)
Our son has shown little to no interest on deer hunting but loves to bird hunt.
If he instills the love of the outdoors and hunting in your daughters they will naturally go out hunting with him.
