I wish I could get my old man to do anything at all. Unfortunately I learned to hunt from my mothers brother. I lost him 2 years ago and brought home a few of his guns. I just can't bring myself to even use his Rem. 1100 because of all the memories. We loved to dove/quail/pheasant hunt and did to an extreme Enjoy your time with your dad or other mentor while you can guys. Good luck to you and your dad this year!
