Another fun and successful DWR Hunter Education class yesterday. This one supported the Virginia Outdoor Women program. Two students will be coming back this fall for a mentored deer hunt. Many thanks to our volunteer instructors and especially Wendy Hyde for running the range.

Falcon Hunt 2026
A great (new) experience today at Independence Outdoors in partnership with DWR, CPO and Falconer Kyle Jones, and Lee & Amy Shelton of Sheltons Wildlife Rem.

Students received a brief classroom lesson on falconry and then a field hunting demo using two Harris’s hawks, and a red tail squirrel hunt in the woods. (more videos in comments)

We plan to host another workshop around this time next year, so check the DWR website for details.

Successful rabbit hunt today. Unplanned but totally worth it.
