About This Course:

Hunting is a time honored traditional way of putting food on your table. It can provide healthy meals for yourself and your family. Unfortunately, not everyone had the privilege of having a mentor to show them the proper methods.

This course is designed for those who want to learn how to safely, legally, and ethically hunt for deer with a firearm. The course will help students understand what they need to purchase, what they need to do in advance, what to expect the day of the hunt, and what to do should they actually successfully harvest an animal.

We will also work with students who complete the course to buddy up with an experienced hunter during hunting season to hopefully be successful in their first harvest.

Topics Covered:

• Legal aspects
