| The Department of Fish and Game’s (DFG)
Advanced Hunter Education Program is offering a waterfowl and upland
game hunting clinic from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sept. 10, at Rancho Esquon
near Durham in Butte County. Cabela’s and Great Outdoors of Sacramento
are sponsoring the clinic in conjunction with the California Waterfowl
Association. Instructors will provide valuable information to new hunters in a safe, encouraging atmosphere. Topics will include the proper firearm and shot for the hunt, bird identification, habits and habitats of the birds, and selecting a canine companion. There will also be coaching on what gear and garb is best for the field, what areas to hunt, staying legal while hunting, and more. Any hunter ages 10 and up is encouraged to attend. Space is limited and registration works on a first-come, first-served basis. The $40 registration fee covers instruction, information materials, lunch and a Waterfowl Association hat and membership. After registration, participants will receive a packet of information approximately two weeks prior to the clinic, which will include a map to the facility, an agenda, and a list of items to bring. To register, go to www.dfg.ca.gov/coned/huntclinics, or call DFG’s Susan Herrgesell at 530-225-2319. ### |
