Inside the Frame: Starting ‘em Young
This is another installment, of our weekly series here at SimplyOutdoors, entitled Inside the Frame. In this series we post a picture from our archives and try to tell the story of what’s Inside the Frame.——————————————————————————————————————————
This picture was taken 10 yrs ago. I can’t believe that it has been that long already.
Jeff’s son, Tyler, was only a few months old in this picture. And, as you can tell, we already had him in the camouflage clothing.
The outfit was actually my doing. I can’t remember why, but I was on my way home from a trip up north, and stopped by a local outdoor store on my way home. This outfit was sitting there, just begging for me to buy it. I wish I would have taken a little more time, realized how expensive it was, and how short of time there would be that he would be able to wear it, and moved on. But, me being me, I just couldn’t resist the temptation to get him his first camo outfit.
Tyler has been hunting with us for years now, and has seen Jeff shoot at least a couple of deer. This is his first year that he will be able to bowhunt, and he is stoked.
I’m glad I bought the outfit, and I’m glad I have the picture for a keepsake. That, in and of itself, was worth the twenty bucks.

I’m making Lil Sugar a camo jumper right now because I can sew, have lots of camo material and can’t fathom spending $20 on an outfit – BUT… it is a great picture and money isn’t everything! (And if I had a boy – I’d be buying clothes, not making them!)
Once in camo, always in camo, come the right seasons. Way to go Uncle Arthur!
Starting them young is one of the most important things I can think of to help get them interested but, then again I wasn’t interested myself until i hit 28 which was a long time ago.
That is one cute kid and i like the camo jammies. Just wait till your little one shows up.
Fun Times…….
I think the camo clothes are cute. It’s true they can’t wear them long, but clothes do last. One of my cousins is now dressing her daughter in baby clothes that my sister and I wore when we were babies. Those things are over 30 years old.
What a great shot. That is what I love about blogging… it seems to lend itself to digging up stories and pictures from the past to compliment the posts about what is coming and what we just did.
Thanks for sharing that, and I hope that you will spend another $20 on Abby for her picture.
