I myself have hunted with a bow for over 26 years. I think it would be a great idea for a bow safty class like they have a gun safty class. I beleive that you should also pass a shooting test with yourt own gear after you have completed a bow class, something like hitting a 12" circle at 20yds a certain number of times. It makes me sick when some hunters take shots they shouldn't. Head on shots, Texas heart shots, etc. Please have respect for the game your hunting and take a killing shot.
