| When I took my son to be certified in Hunter Education a year later at our local Community Center, I realized the need for more Instructors. I became a Volunteer Instructor for Illinois Department of Conservation in 1993. Moving to Texas, I began teaching for Texas Parks & Wildlife Department in 1995. Attained the rank of Volunteer Master Instructor after completing the required Hunter Education Academy Instructor courses in one year. I hold NRA Instructor's certification in Home Firearm Safety, Personal Protection, Pistol, Rifle,& Shotgun and Muzzle Loading Pistol, Rifle & Shotgun. During the many years working for General Motors, I got the opportunity to be in their Training Department where I learned many teaching skills. My classes are interactive and have plenty of visual aid. I try to offer classes in August, September and October for the fall and winter hunting season. Also before spring turkey season. Group classes can be arranged at least 30 days in advance. Texas Hunter Education Texas requires every hunter, age 17 and older, born on or after September 2, 1971 to successfully complete a Hunter Education Training Course. Age 9 through 16 must successfully complete the course or be accompanied by a person 17 years of age or older, licensed to hunt in Texas. Under 9 years of age MUST be accompanied by a person 17 year of age or older licensed to hunt in Texas. Minimum age of certification is 9 years old. State law requires that the class be a minimum of ten hours long taught over at least a two day period. To meet this requirement there are two types of classes; Traditional class (where the student attends the all the class at a specific location) or Home Study (where the student completes the Home Study material-either On-Line or obtains a workbook and video tape packet and then attends a certification class).

| As a hunter, you are the final judge as to whether your actions are right or wrong." Aldo Leopold. I have been hunting since age 21. My hunting education came from friends and magazine articles. Attending an Illinois Hunter Education course with one of my six daughters at a Pistol & Rifle Club in 1991 started me on this path as a Hunter Education Instructor. |
