You're pretty safe Ted, he'd rather drive Grampa's lawnmower and boat. I also expect that he'll want to go hunt a bit with Grampa too. Like many (if not most) of his generation (Gen Z?) he's more into computers and cellphones than far-less glamorous things that require an extensive delayed-gratification component. The jury is clearly still out here, but he's remains a very fussy eater and only just tries what I bring home. Until the connection between food and pursuit gets made I'm guessing he'll only be a lukewarm participant, but you just never know. What I do know is that I didn't really seize onto hunting and fishing until my late 20s. Up until that point, there were far too-many other distractions. I liked it as a kid, but I didn't love it until much later (when I needed it for my sanity).
Also, you aren't kidding about the larder. He's grown almost a full foot since last Fall and he eats constantly. It's still mostly kiddie crap, but it is constant. Keeping him in cloths (and now braces!) seems to be the bigger expense at the moment.
