I dont believe that the beginners are idiots, I just want to welcome them to the wonderful world of archery hunting. Yes I do agree that we need some type of field test, but for the most part I believe it should be an accuracy test, and then getting into shot placement on wild game. These beginners should have already completed a hunter safety course, and be well knowledged on safety. I dont know what the safety course is like these days, but when I completed the course years ago it was a great tool to applying safety to hunting, and also got into shot placement and wild game.
