I have 2 kids age 8&9 that I plan on letting shoot this dove season and for deer season. Will they be required to have a youth hunting license? When I was that age I do not remember having to have a license until I was around 12.

From the TPWD website:

"Youth Hunting License
Type 169:$7
Valid for any person, resident or non-resident, under 17 years of age at the date of license purchase. Exempt from state hunting endorsement requirements, except for Reptile and Amphibian Endorsement. State endorsement exemptions remain valid for the entire license year."

To me, this means anyone under 17 must purchase a youth hunting license.
