Wow ! I'm impressed ! I cant wait to tell the other Hunter Safety instructors the results of this poll . I personally ( along with 2 other instructors ) have instructed about 500 students . I first did it to compile club hours ( you need 20 hrs of club chores and are penalized 10 bucks for every hour you do not complete plus the club dues ) but found out quickly that this was more than that . I've been to a 4 day academy at Higgins lake were the DNR personally teach the instructors . With their help I've instructed the deaf,blind and people of all handicaps to be a safe hunter . I had a young lady who had down syndrome pass the oral exam so she could hunt with her Dad ... when she hugged me goodbye at the end of the course the look in her proud fathers face almost brought me to tears . This in itself makes me proud to be involved in the hunting sports .
