Hunting Handbook

Anyone out there a hunting guide or know anyone that is?

How do you become a hunting guide? Do you have to go to college for it, do you go to a special school for it or what? I would love to be one someday and i am wandering how to do that. Thanks a lot.

1. Okay, it varies from state to state, I looked it up on google and here's an excerpt on how to become a hunting guide in New Hampshire "A guide's license authorizes the licensed person to "direct, aid, assist or instruct another person in taking wildlife in this state" and to charge a fee (RSA 207:1 XIII). A person may become licensed to guide for fishing, hunting or both. The minimum age to become a guide is 18. Applicants must have a clean Fish and Game record and clean Criminal record. The person must complete an application form and pass a 50-question written exam for the specific license (must take both tests for both licenses).

Laws concerning guiding are found in Chapter 215 of the State RSAs (click here to read)."
