Blood trailing is alittle challenging for me since I'm color blind. I can do it, I just dont see blood as easily as others. Hope I pass. I'm taken over 100 big games animals.
I signed up for an AZ bonus point field day later in Aug. What should I expect. Looks like it's an hour long and we will be shooting .22's with a written test at the end? Is the test the same as the online test I already took? That test was too long.
