Colorado Parks and Wildlife has launched a new series of online classes about hunting in Colorado. Called “Learn to Hunt” the classes are perfect for anyone just getting started in hunting, but there are some courses that could benefit more experienced hunters as well, including a session on how to understand hunt statistics and how to take advantage of Colorado’s new Secondary Draw.
The classes are all conducted using the online meeting services of Zoom, so all you need is a computer and an internet connection. Courses are scheduled on Thursday nights at 7 pm starting May 7, 2020. To register go to: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YmIcLtFsRLmFUg9sh5AtLQ. Registration is free.
