Hoss50 Report post Posted August 29, 2021 I just signed my 9 year old up for online. It didn't show any in person classes or field days near Phoenix, so he will do it online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Siwash Report post Posted August 29, 2021 AZGFD is not doing in person H.E. classes right now. I would do the online thing and look for an online field day. You can get started here: https://www.hunter-ed.com/arizona/ and then watch for field days. I volunteer with AZGFD and we have just started doing field days for students who took the online course in the last few months. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I volunteer with AZGFD and we have just started doing field days for students who took the online course in the last few months. Same here. We've been doing the Streamlined Field Days for online students in Flagstaff since May. We have more coming up, I think, but I won't be helping until after mid-October. Right now, we're looking at (hoping to) start in-person classes next spring. There is a significant backlog of online students who need field days, so those folks get priority and its being further prioritized for kids 9-13 who actually (legally) need the class. We ran through our backlog of kids needing the field day here in Flagstaff quickly and now many of our participants are kids and adults from the Phoenix area, Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley.

Apparently AZGFD, the NRA nor myself can produce the proof I took the course 50 years ago. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I'm not the AZGFD, nor do I know anyone there so have fun retaking the course. It'll be worth it long term. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I recall the course well, took it with a couple friends at the Moose Lodge on the eastside. Dad would haul us there in a '68 Roadrunner then hit Jensens or some pawnshops. The field day was at the Tucson Rod and Gun Club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Called G&F a few years ago to get my bonus point and the gal said she seen where I had taken it, but it did not count for a bonus point? Got lucky and took the condensed course at the expo at Ben Avery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
