Hunting is a tradition passed down from grandparents and parents to their children. Adults mentor the younger generation. Not only is it a great sport, but it helps each generation appreciate each other while spending time away from the overwhelming technology of every day life, and lets you enjoy the great outdoors. Another welcome aspect is filling the freezer with venison for your family. Whether hunting with a bow, rifle or shotgun, hunting is a great sport and family activity.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is offering a free bowhunting course in Miami-Dade County.
All classroom materials are provided free of charge. Students should bring a pen or pencil, paper and all bowhunting equipment they have. An adult must accompany children younger than 16 at all times.
Anyone born on or after June 1, 1975, must pass an approved hunter safety course and have a hunting license to hunt alone (unsupervised). The FWC course satisfies bowhunter safety training requirements for all other states and Canadian provinces.
