Hunter Education Course Offers Safety, Ethics Training
The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation will host an Oklahoma Hunter Education course from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday, July 21, at the Southern Oklahoma Technology Center, located at 2610 Sam Noble Parkway in Ardmore.

The course will be led by Noble Foundation wildlife consultants and hunter education instructors Will Moseley, Mike Porter, Steven Smith and Russell Stevens; Oklahoma game warden Jeremy Brothers; and hunter education instructor Keith Morgan.

Topics will include hunter ethics, firearms and laws, as well as safety protocols, specialty hunting, and wildlife management and conservation. "Safety and ethical conduct of hunters and other people who handle guns are the primary focuses of this course," Porter said. "The other topics provide knowledge and skills necessary to be a well-educated hunter."

The Oklahoma Hunter Education Course is required for all Oklahoma hunters born on or after Jan. 1, 1972, before they can purchase a hunting license, deer gun permit or deer primitive firearms permit. This course is also required for most hunters in the United States. Oklahoma's hunter education certification is accepted in all 50 states. To receive a hunter education certification, a person must attend the entire course, pass the written exam and demonstrate safe gun handling.

"While hunters benefit from this course, all those who enjoy Oklahoma's wildlife benefit from hunters," Porter said. "The vast majority of funds supporting wildlife management in Oklahoma are generated from hunting."

The course is open to the public and is offered at no cost, courtesy of the Noble Foundation, Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation, and Oklahoma Wildlife Management Foundation. For additional information and to preregister for the event, contact Tracy Cumbie at 580.224.6292 or click here to contact them online.
