    I got my instructor certificate a couple of months ago and will be doing my first class at the end of March in Eagan. I figured since I have 2 boys going through it, I may as well teach it. Any pointers on the teaching side of it?
    I did receive a box full of goodies from the DNR after I registered the class and asked for everything they offer!!

    We have a class of 27 kids, all signed up with one email to the EAA football coaches from last year.

    First of all, let me congratulate you on getting the Firearms Safety Training instructor certificate. By the way, what is the duration of your course? Try to get more kids enroll for the training because 27 is still not enough.

    Welcome to IDO gunnerjacky
    FYI just in case you did not notice, you might be waiting a while for a reply from Fireman1217 as this post was from 2010 and his last post on idohunting was on 10/14/10.
    You never know maybe he will see this and let us know how the classed have been going for the last few years.

    Oh that I didn’t notice. I wonder why he hasn’t showed up since 2010. Hope he’s alright. By the way, I’m new here and want to know about deer hunting rules, is it any strict prohibition on timing, day etc for hunting?

    If you are asking about legal shooting hours for deer hunting it would be a half hour before sunrise to half hour after sunset.

    That’s nice. Thank you Steve for the information. I think there are some license which one must have for hunting deers or other animals. I have LTC-A. It won’t create any problem for me, will it?

    Yes you need a different license for almost everything you hunt. Sorry I do not know what a LTC-A is????

    I went to the website under his/her profile.

    LTC-A: A license to carry (LTC) permit of the A class allows the purchase, possession and carrying of firearms holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition. However, the magazine must be pre-ban.

    Oh, ok… I guess I have to learn about them before going for hunting. I don’t want to break any law anywhere to avoid getting into trouble.

    You are right. Violation of the rule may get your license revoked and you’ve to pay the fine upto $10,000 (Depends upon the country).
