I was not required to attend a hunter safety course, but my underage son was, so as his transportation, I decided to attend witrh him so I would keep an eye on what he was taught.
It was held at the local Gander Mt., and while they had examples of most of the weapons discussed, it seems they did not have a bolt action shotgun, a combination gun, or a SXS shotgun among the store's wares. On day two, I brought in mine for display. The instructors loved me, and asked me to help out on all future classes at that location, but it was unpaid, and as a single income household, that was not an option.
The instruction was good overall, but they did say harvest instead of kill. (I did inform them, that no one planted any of the wildlife).
