    He will not be HUNTING. No bow etc... But is interested to help locate, call, and just witness the thrill etc..

    Have a 2 person stand and he could hang or help if needed...
    Im in Connecticut, and cant find anything stating if i can or not...

    Yes you can bring a friend. No law against it.

    Yeah, I think its OK to observe, but technically I dont think they can call, or otherwise actively engage in the hunt. (But who's going to know) I was going to help my dad get a deer this year in this manner. He hunts PA and i didn't get a license up there this year, so this way we can still spend some time together in the woods.

    ^gotta agree with that one. As long as he doesn't carry a weapon or attempt to harvest something he can go.

    I had a friend in West Virginia that would push deer to me by barking like a dog!!!! It was awesome but he had a license and I would do the same for him.
