Default does your state require you to prove you can shoot

I'd like to know what states require bowhunters to pass some sort of profficiency test with their bow prior to being validated to hunt with it.

I brought this up in the Idaho forum. I'd like to know if any states require bowhunters, or any other group of hunters, to pass any kind of profficiency test with their chosen weapon prior to being validated to hunt with that weapon.

I hope that this will not create a name calling episode, as it did on the Idaho forum. I know that there would be pros and cons to any test that may or may not be instituted. I'd like to hear opinions from all. Thanks.
