Hunter and bowhunter education classes offered in the Magic Valley Region this month.

Do you know someone who needs to take a hunter or bowhunter education course before hunting season this fall? Idaho Fish and Game has two upcoming classes in the Magic Valley for both hunters and bowhunters.

Instructor-led combo hunter and bowhunter education class                                                                         Buhl-May 19-23, 2025 

The instructor-led hunter and bowhunter combo class is designed for students 9 years of age or older who are new to hunting, and will certify in both hunter and bowhunter education. To be eligible to purchase an archery permit, all bowhunters must hold a valid hunting license and provide proof they have completed bowhunter education or show evidence of being licensed for an archery-only hunt in Idaho or another state. 

Instructor-led hunter education class                                                                                                             Jerome-May 23-24, 2025 

To buy an Idaho hunting license, all individuals must show proof of completion that they have completed hunter education if they were born on or after January 1, 1975. Students must be at least 9 years old to register for a hunter education class. 

Web-based hunter and bowhunter education courses are also available.

To register for upcoming classes, visit the Idaho Fish and Game website. Registration is $9.75 for instructor-led courses, $32.50 for the online hunter education course, and $38.00 for the online bowhunter education course.
