2010 NAFA Meet

[Takasho]

Paul, contact the NY Fish and Game folks and ask if they might have a copy somewhere? Or just take another in NM before the meet. Still plenty of time right? Heck, I think some places even have online versions...

Shouldn't last years hunting license be proof enough that you have taken a hunters safety course?

[Saluqi]

Doesn't matter, I won't be hunting anyway. I'll only be there from Sunday night leaving on Wednesday morning, Tuesday will be in the NAFA board meeting all day, leaving Monday to hunt, no way I'm spending $75 for a day of hunting, oh well.

Nope. Not all states require hunter's safety and those that do have different requirements. Here in Texas you only have to have hunter's education if you were born after 9/1/1972. And just because you have a hunting license is not proof that you have taken hunter's education. They are issued separately. On some people's licenses it has their HE number, but on mine it just says Hunter's Education required. So I carry my card with my license.

Bummer. This means I need a hunter's safety course. In Colorado, you don't need one if you only have a falconry license. grrr.

Yep Florida is one of those places, the online portion was even free. I read some, answered some questions printed out the scores, then went to a location for the live fire exercises, and took the final exam. I think it took me less than 3 hours to get the whole certification done.

In UT you could not get a hunting liscense at walmart w/out them entering your hunter safety # in the computer. At the meet hotel they gave a waiver for the 5 day falconry liscense.
