Just how much time do you think one should spend in class? I am an upaid volunteer. If it was not for US volunteers many many hunters out there would not be able to hunt!

Most instructors are not trying to fit more info in limited time,
but deciding what can be skipped, glanced over quickly to make time for material they deem more important.
10-12 hrs really isnt that much,
especially when you have good discussions going on,
heck a good instructor passionate about teaching can spend the entire class just discussing 1 topic alone,
might learn alot on that topic, but then everything else gets skipped.
myself, i enjoy the classes and find it a small price to pay to spend additional time for a lifetime of hunting
