LEARN MORE ABOUT THE RESPONSIBLE HUNTER PROGRAM
SANTA FE – The Department of Game and Fish scheduled meetings across New Mexico to explain changes in the shooting program to youth shooting club leaders.
“In the past, youth clubs benefited from the agency purchasing ammunition and other shooting equipment,” said Jessica Fisher, shooting program coordinator. “In the future, we intend to offer financial assistance for the clubs to purchase equipment and other products they need. We also will be emphasizing ‘responsible hunting’ through better marksmanship.”
