I think the best solution would be teaching it in school. I did hunters education in middle school and EMT-B in high school.
I feel like the bill is well intentioned but it’s misplaced. Technology has became well intrenched in our lives. Expanding opportunities and getting new hunters “qualified” for the outdoors should be everybody priority. By offering hunters education online it at least exposes people to the information. For most of us we were exposed to very same information well before any class; the class was just a requirement in order for us to hunt. I feel that isn’t going to change.
What should happen is more funding for outdoor workshops that focused on new hunters that need mentorship and to teach the “basics” that all of us learned from a very early age.
