Bowhunter Education
Bowhunting is a challenginig sport! This type of hunting is done at a much closer range and requires a high degree of stealth, perserverance, patience and effort. Bowhunters must become adept at scouting, tracking and recovering game. Bowhunters must master new archery techniques and learn the anatomy and behavior of the game. Before attempting to use archery equipment as a hunting tool, each bowhunter should become a proficient archer. This requires dedication, practice and good distance-judging ability.
Texas bowhunters have the opportunity for additional training through a special course offered by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department through the International Bowhunting Education Program and the National Bowhunting Education Foundation. Please remember that bowhunter education certification does not substitute for Texas Hunter Education Certification.
