MNpurple Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 For anyone that thinks they may hunt a western state in the upcoming years, take the class. More states are requiring actual bowhunter education rather than just your hunters safety card. Hate to have an opportunity to hunt out west and then realize you cant because you dont have the class.Plus, no matter how many years you've hunted, its a good review and you learn a few interesting, new things along the way.

Only time will tell if thats true. I know I'm not wild about spending a whole day learning about something that I've been doing for 25 years but like you said, its required in some states. In my case, I'm looking at doing a bowhunt in SoDak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sticknstring Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 It's not painful at all. Basically a field trip away from the office for a day that grants you permission to bowhunt out of state. Nice chance to meet fellow bowhunters and instructors who share the same passion. Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghotierman Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Not just western states. Most states require proof of a Hunter Education Course to obtain a license. (Even residents of MN born after 1979)The IHEA (international hunter education association) has a complete list of hunter education requirements for all states, and canadian provinces: http://www.ihea.com/hunter-education/hunter-education-requirements.phpThe bowhunter ed class fulfills this qualification.
