It was easy and boring when I did it, granted this was a decade ago and in a state where they let you own guns pretty freely.
We had two classes that were about 3 hours. The first one was on gun safety and was followed up with practice shooting, and the second one was about hunting safety (like not pointing guns at people, what to wear, how to get tags, etc). Then there was a written test that was mostly multiple choice with a few written question and a shooting test. One guy waved his gun around too much and shot the ceiling and still got his license so I don't think they're typically very strict.

These days, they have online classes. I would jump at the opportunity to take an online class if I had to do hunter's safety over.You can expect in-person classes in mid to late summer.

When I got my hunter's license in Norway, it was a few evenings over four days or something. Theory about the relevant laws/seasons, animal behavior, how wildlife populations are managed and what happens if they aren't managed, identification of a great many species, a little bit firearm theory and firearm safety, bullets and ballistics (this was in that lull between lead ammo bans), and a good number of reminders to behave ourselves and keep the public opinion of hunters in mind.
One evening at the gun range, where we shot rifle and shotgun to familiarize ourselves with them.
One written exam to wrap it up.
Nothing hard, and the knowledge was a good help on the way. Even the things I thought I'd never need helped out. I even recognized a common snipe by its call, just like in the exercises we did.

You can usually do this shit online, and it’s a bunch of multiple choice questions like “how should you carry your rifle? A: in your ass like a buttplug, B: pointed directly at uncle cletus, or C: safely”

The only semi interesting or difficult stuff I’ve ever seen is some states have specific tests for certain licenses/tags. I know there’s a grizzly va black bear ID test, and Oregon had a dusky goose vs other geese test, which is actually kinda hard because they’re just a subspecies of Canada goose.

The general hunting courses are basically just to make sure you have at least a double digit IQ and to scam some money.

Ended up doing it and it was the easiest shit imaginable, half the questions were stupid shit like "when is it okay to point a gun at someone.", the little hunting related stuff was just pictures of animals one might hunt in our state and how to set up stands, basic shit not even on the test either.
The range portion was literally just firing a 22 twice.
A little disappointing to be honest, I thought they'd teach some interesting stuff. Instead it's just common sense questions 99% about not shooting yourself or others.

Its easier than a driving test.

Easy as hell. You can take an online course through the state, or a private company (this option costs more than state test). The private company's test is faster, I completed it in under 2 hours. It's literally "how should you shoot at a moving bird?", "is it safe to point a firearm at another human being?" Or "does this shotgun shell fit inside of a 30-06 rifle?"

Don't worry about it.

i did it in colorado when i was 11. it was ezpz. its mostly just common sense safety rules, hunting ethics, handling game after the kill, and a bit of survival stuff. my school offered it.

these hunting classes are designed so 10 year olds can pass them, just study and pay attention in class and you'll pass

>Anyone do one of these?
Yeah.

>What am I in for?
A few hours of class, a piss-easy written test and maybe a little bit of range time.
