Wisconsin Dnr Hosting Learn to Hunt Workshops Across the State

Monday, August 28th, 2023 -- 9:00 AM

The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) will host Learn to Hunt workshops across the state this fall to help Wisconsin hunters become safer, more independent and ethical hunters.

The DNR’s Learn to Hunt programs, hosted in partnership with volunteer groups, are great for new hunters and anyone who wants a refresher course before the fall hunting seasons. All Learn to Hunt workshops are open to the public and are designed to cater to various skill levels and interests.

Offerings range from multi-day comprehensive Hunter Education Classes for those new to the sport to one-day workshops with specific topics like shot-gunning, archery, pheasant, squirrel, deer, grouse and rabbit hunting and hands-on deer butchering.

“Wisconsin has some of the most abundant hunting opportunities in the nation, and with a little guidance, anyone can access great hunting locations and use a variety of hunting strategies to have a safe and enjoyable hunting experience,” said Quinn Erdmann, DNR Hunting and Shooting Sports Program Assistant. “We are here to help anyone unsure of where to get started or what their first step should be.”

Learn to Hunt workshops combine classroom and field instruction before a novice goes hunting with a qualified mentor. Programs are hosted by qualified volunteer mentors from local hunting clubs and other conservation organizations across Wisconsin.
