    Thought I should add this.
    I got sick of going for armed walks with the boy,seeing his disappointment and interest disappearing. The course cost was around $280 and that gave the both of us membership. It seemed a lot, but in reality was only a drop in the bucket to what I'd wasted with nothing to show. They took us back to basics along with first aid, navigation and marksmanship, ethics...... We had 2 hunts, which while challenging, put us in pretty good locations to achieve our goal of taking an animal. Then got shown how to process it properly.
    I thought it would be full of blowhards and big noters, but I haven't come across them. At the end of the day every group, club and organisation has them, but no sign yet. The knowledge that was shared, along with invitations to hunt other places and animals far outweighs the negatives. Then you add in access not normally given to 'Joe Public' and the huts,insurance etc, I believe it far outweighs the negatives and is great value for money, especially as someone trying to learn and teach your child.
