RE: Hunting safety class.
A whole week!!!!! Wow they're really serious in your state. Mine was only a day and a half. It was pretty easy because my husband had already taught me everything.
The thing they really emphasized was identifying your target and accounting for what's behind your target. The worst thing you can do is shoot at some movement in the brush. Guys have shot their own kids that way.
Hunting and shooting is about the most fun you can haveafter a couple of other things.

Ours was 2 days, one full day in the class room and part of the day taking the test, getting your hunters ed certification. A week seems pretty long but with some of the kids in my hunters safety class, i would have rather gone a week.

RE: Hunting safety class.
Mine was three days, saturdays actually. We did in the classroom stuff for a couple hours, then they spoke about how to shoot a certain gun(hand-gun, shotgun, and rifles) before takeing us to the range to go shooting. I cant imagine it takeing more then three days, but some of the hunters i have seen need it to be a semester-long course if its going to sink into them
