Congratulations! The long redish haired dude with the beard is my buddy Keith. Great guy and excellent instructor. We do hunters helping the hungry together.

Does anyone know if new bow and firearm courses and tests will be offered for the northern NJ area (ie cherry ridge)? I know I'm late in the season but I'd like try to get this all squared away now for next year. Thanks!

Cherry Ridge 11/09 8am just go as walk on , thats last date posted for that location.

[njitmetal 2]

They will accept two walk ons?

Me and my wife

[ogfarmer 138]

yes, just have all your stuff completed before hand, either the work book (free) or the online course Huntercourse.com ( small fee but  will speed up your day)

[njitmetal 2]

Great, thanks for the info

[Junior 14]

Any idea when they will start posting dates for next year?

[ogfarmer 138]

I think around march/april

[BlueLineFish 615]

I guess there is no way to get my license before march/april then.

[ogfarmer 138]

nope

Darn.... I'm in the same boat too...

[DeerSlayer 241]

Doesn't Cherry Ridge do the classes all year?

[DeerSlayer 241]

Usually the class schedule is up by the end of January beginning of February.

When I get to TX (on Monday), I can get my hunting license without taking a hunter safety course since I was born before Sept 1971.

 

 

This signature is AWESOME!!!
