Never did pass (or take) Hunter Safety. It wasn't required in 1960, but what was required was having Dad and my uncle think I was responsible enough to take out.

Did not get my first animal till 1994 here in Washington....with a bow.
Now up to 14 deer, 4 elk and 1 bear, all here in WA, all with archery.

Took hunter ed in 1994 but didn't get to hunt until 1995. Killed a 3pt in Goldendale. On the pack out my dad shot a heavy beamed 3x5. We jumped him out of his bed and my dad made a great running shot with half my deer on his back.

Spring of 1964, I took the class at Tacoma Sportsmans Club. Got a 8' spike with eye guards on Quartz Mountain South west of Republic. I still have the euro mount in the rafters of the garage along with the 2X2 my dad got on the same hunt.
