Hunter education class held at Plains Trap Club

There are thousands of adults and children in Montana who have successfully completed a Hunter Education class. The class takes at least two days and 12 hours in length. What takes place is very accurate and detailed learning about how to safely hunt, hunting ethics, specific laws on hunting in Montana, following a blood trail, what to do if lost, firing a .22 caliber rifle, and firing a shotgun. Once the class is successfully completed, the written test has been passed, and the field course has been done, the individual will receive a Montana hunter education certificate. The certificate is honored in all of North America.
