The Hunter Download

My boyfriend is a hunter and only wears Richardson hats so this was a perfect Christmas gift! I had to give it to him early because I was so excited about my find and he absolutely loved it. I ended up buying another hat and a shirt for his brother who also hunts. Even had a hand written thank you! Support your local businesses this holiday :)
The online course, alone, is NOT a qualification for a hunter education certificate. Once you have completed an online course, you will still need to attend a 4-hour follow up class with a certified Hunter Education Instructor. Access is permitted to the 4-hour follow-up class only after a student has completed the written Home Study or Online component of the class.
The hunter education deferral program allows a one-year, once-in-a-lifetime deferral of hunter education training for individuals new to hunting who are accompanied by an experienced hunter. The Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission adopted rules (WAC 220-412-020) to implement the program.
Please note that if either the deferred hunter or the accompanying hunter is convicted of a hunting violation under the deferral program, the department may revoke all hunting licenses and tags and order a suspension of one or both the deferred hunter and the accompanying hunter's hunting privileges for one year.
We encourage every hunter to take a hunter education course. However, if you were born on or after September 1, 1969, you must satisfactorily complete an LDWF-approved hunter education course and receive Hunter Education Certification prior to hunting in Louisiana, unless you are under direct supervision of a qualified person. (A qualified person is a Louisiana licensed hunter born before September 1, 1969, or a person 18 years of age or older who has a valid unrestricted Louisiana hunting license or proof of Hunter Education Certification. Direct supervision means the person being supervised is within normal audible voice contact and in direct line of sight of the supervising person at all times while hunting.)
Bowhunter education is not mandatory in Louisiana. However, LDWF offers a bowhunter education course to provide bowhunters with safety and skills training. Most classes require advance registration. View upcoming courses and register online.

You can view all of the HWTs using the free Google Earth application (Google Chrome is required to run the new Google Earth). Download the Hunter Walking Trail file and save it to your device. Then launch Google Earth, click on My Places, enable importing, and import the HWT KML file that you just downloaded. All Minnesota's hunter walking trails will appear in the application.
Since Hunter Walking Trails fall on multiple public land ownerships, hunters need to be aware that the rules and regulations may vary for the specific trail locations and even trail segments they are visiting. For example, camping at a HWT trailhead that falls on a Wildlife Management Area is NOT allowed but if that trailhead is under different ownership camping may be allowed. Hunters should be mindful not to block access to Hunter Waking Trails for other hunters while camping or parking, where allowed.
RANGE DAY: This training is for those who have completed the classroom session of the hunter education course via alternative means (internet or CD-Rom). Students must bring the proper completion certificate from a KDFWR-approved online course or CD-Rom. The range day will include a live fire exercise. All materials, including firearms and ammunition, are provided at NO CHARGE. Click to see the Kentucky Hunter Education Range Day Course list and Registration.
Students may self-study through the hunter education course by completing one of the internet options below. In order to fully complete the certification requirements, once the student completes the online course, they must pre-register and attend a RANGE DAY where they will participate in a live fire exercise.
The temporary hunter education exemption permit allows a person to hunt for one year without first completing a hunter education course. The permit will be available online for free (for a limited time) and is available to both Kentucky residents and nonresidents.
Becoming certified as a Hunter Education Instructor is a great way to insure the continuation of Kentucky's hunting tradition. Every year over 15,000 Kentucky citizens learn how to be a safe and ethical hunter by participating in a Kentucky Hunter Education Course or Range Day.
