This event is the required field portion of Texas Hunter Education to complete a home study course taken on line. This field portion includes ethics, safety, hunter’s skills trail, live fire, and multiple-choice exam elements. Successful completion of this course will fulfill the legal requirement for those desiring to hunt in Texas who were born on or after September 2, 1971, and for those hunting in states outside Texas. Evidence of the home study course in the form of a printed, completed online “practice tests” MUST be turned into the instructor at the start of the field portion; otherwise NO CERTIFICATION WILL BE ISSUED. There are no exceptions!

DO NOT PAY ANY MONEY ONLINE UNLESS YOU JUST WANT TO PAY EXTRA!!! The website for the home study portion is: http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/learning/hunter_education/online.phtml . I suggest you take one of the top two, FREE, listed courses. Follow exactly the instructions on either course.

Upon successfully completing the course and final exam with a passing score of 80, a temporary certification will be issued. Texas Parks & Wildlife will mail permanent certification to you within a few weeks. NOTE : You must be nine years old to receive certification for the course.

Location: ROSE CITY FLYING CLAYS; see this link for

directions and other information:

http://www.rosecityflyingclays.com . Be prepared to be

patient, flexible, hot, cold, and/or wet. We will be outdoors

much of the time just like hunting! Bring bottled water.

What to bring: You MUST bring your printed tests from the online course if they are not emailed. Please bring your own protective equipment (ear plugs and safety glasses.)

Fee: Have cash in the exact amount of $20.00. This covers the $15.00 class fee set by the State of Texas, plus a $5.00 live fire range fee, targets, and shot shells. (If you bought a hunter education deferral during the current season, bring it with you and turn in for a $5 credit—deferral plus exactly $15.00. I cannot give the $5.00 discount if you do not bring and turn in your deferral.) Under age 18? I will need a legal adult to sign your registration form and a permission slip; adults, don’t drive away until you sign!!!

Live fire: SPECIAL NOTE: Everything is provided for you to successfully complete the course. Do NOT bring your own firearm or ammunition to the class.
