Redman Report post Posted July 6, 2005 Greetings, I have been wanting to take the hunter education course, but due to the limited offerings by the AZ G&F in Tucson and my own scheduling conflicts, I have not been able to take it. Don't get me wrong, I know the great folks that teach it do it on a volunteer basis so I am not complaining. I am trying to get my ducks in order to hunt in Colorado this fall if the AZ draw proves to be fruitless. Colorado requires hunters education or for archery only (which I plan to do) bowhunting education. Is there any private places that offer a accepted course? I would really like to take just the bowhunting course this year and next year take the rifle course with my son. Redman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cohofishing Report post Posted July 6, 2005 Redman, my problems exactly! I looked into this problem abit and the best I could do for myself and daughter was go to New Mexico. That state does the rifle part during one weekend, saturday and sunday and this spring it was offered in both lordsburg and demming, as well as other cities. The guy I talked to at Arizona game and fish, suggested this idea, and upon completetion, we'd have to take a Arizona one day refresher course. I never did get it done this year but will next year and I can't help you much with the bow hunting card. When I got mine in Alaska, I was able to take it throught a local organization instead of the fish and game. Maybe call PSE or Robinson's? The person to call is on the Arizona Game and Fish Website; he's in charge of hunter safety. Check out New Mexico Game and fish for their classes, it's on their website.

KGAINES Report post Posted July 7, 2005 I took mine at deer valley high school and it was taken during a class at school, I doubt that would ever happen now, but it was a great deal, they came to our class and when they were done we took the test, I actually took my shotgun to school and rode a bus to ben avery with it to shoot trap and skeet for a field trip. Good luck finding a class you can take, I will be going through it in a few years when my kids get a little older. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dodger2 Report post Posted July 9, 2005 I know that Wyoming offers an online version. All you have to go to is the field day. I don't know how effective this would be, but maybe an alternative for some people in some situations. I was goofing around and "finished" Wyoming's in about 45 minutes.
