Some 2006 Archery Education Courses Scheduled
 

PIERRE, S.D. – South Dakota archers needing certification to apply for the state’s big game archery licenses should visit the Game, Fish and Parks website at www.sdgfp.info.

Once there, look under the subheading "Outdoor Education" for the link titled "Bowhunter Education Courses."

Among the requirements for archery hunters in South Dakota is that all first-time bowhunters and all bowhunters under the age of 16 must complete a National Bowhunter Education Foundation (NBEF) sanctioned bowhunter education course before applying for an archery license.

"We strive to organize a listing as early as possible so hunters have as good a chance as possible to attend a course,” said GFP Communications Manager Chuck Schlueter. “Courses may not be offered in every community, so hunters need to plan ahead to find a convenient course."
