Hunter Education Patches
Since
starting my volunteer teaching with Texas Parks and Wildlife, I have become
interested in the patches from other states. On a few consecutive nights, I
emailed all the states I could find emails for asking for patches, even
offering to pay for them. The response was fairly good and within about a month
I had recieved patches from close to half of the states. I also have bought
some off ebay. Some of the states have many different patches, both old and
new. And from personal experience, I know the Texas patch is no more as they
now hand out stickers.The following is a picture essay of the patches I have
obtained so far. The states that are blank are ones I am still looking for.
Down to needing patches for just 5 states as of this writing. My goal is to get
at least 1 patch from every state, and some states I have obtained new and old,
or student and instructor, or both.
