Luck may determine when a deer crosses your path, but skill determines whether you're ready for that moment. Aim for a more successful hunt this season by attending one of the many skills events!
ODFW connects people to Oregon's great outdoors by offering a multitude of workshops and events throughout the year. Education programs cover required Hunter Safety certification courses, ability level and age specific workshops, and events for the entire family.
