I've never hunted using a bow and want to start this year. A friend told me that I have to take a class to qualify, but I'm 35 years old. Do I still have to take a class?

Everyone who wants to start hunting during an archery only season has to take a bowhunter education class. If you can't attend a regular class we now offer the class online at http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/cms/education/hunter_ed/.When you pass the online course you have to participate in a Field Day set up by local Fish and Game offices to become certified to hunt with archery equipment. Internet courses are not recommended for hunters under 14 years of age.
