Question 1 sur 25
In carry 2 of the diagram, a break-action shotgun is open over the forearm. Why is this a good choice when walking with others?
- It keeps the shells warm and dry
- Everyone can see the gun is open and cannot fire
- It is the only carry allowed by federal law when hunting in groups
- It is the fastest way to shoot
Voir la réponse
Réponse: B. Everyone can see the gun is open and cannot fire
The open action shows the gun is safe, and the muzzle points at the ground ahead.
Question 2 sur 25
You hunt alone and reach a fence. What is your first step, as shown in the diagram?
- Unload the firearm and open the action
- Lean the loaded gun on a post
- Pass the loaded gun through the wires first
- Climb over while holding the firearm
Voir la réponse
Réponse: A. Unload the firearm and open the action
Always unload before crossing a fence or other obstacle.
Question 3 sur 25
After unloading, how should a lone hunter get a firearm across a fence?
- Lean it against the fence with the safety on, then climb over right beside it
- Lay it on the far side, muzzle pointing away, and cross away from the muzzle
- Throw it over
- Hold it overhead as you climb
Voir la réponse
Réponse: B. Lay it on the far side, muzzle pointing away, and cross away from the muzzle
The firearm lies on the far side pointing away, so you are never in front of the muzzle while crossing.
Question 4 sur 25
Two hunters reach a fence together. What is a safe way to cross?
- Unload both guns; one hunter holds them while the other crosses, then hands them over
- One covers the other with a loaded gun
- Both lean loaded guns on the fence
- Both climb over at the same time while holding their loaded guns with the safeties on
Voir la réponse
Réponse: A. Unload both guns; one hunter holds them while the other crosses, then hands them over
With actions open and guns unloaded, they can be handed across safely.
Question 5 sur 25
Look at the diagram. Which hunter is easiest for other hunters to see?
- Both are equally easy to see
- The hunter in the blaze-orange hat and vest (1 and 2)
- Neither can be seen
- Hunter 3, because camouflage stands out well against trees
Voir la réponse
Réponse: B. The hunter in the blaze-orange hat and vest (1 and 2)
Blaze orange stands out against woods and fields, so other hunters can see you.
Question 6 sur 25
Why can deer hunters wear blaze orange?
- Deer see colors differently, so orange does not stand out to them as it does to us
- Deer are completely color-blind, so they cannot see any bright colors at all in daylight
- Deer are attracted to orange
- Orange is only worn after shooting
Voir la réponse
Réponse: A. Deer see colors differently, so orange does not stand out to them as it does to us
Hunter orange is very visible to people. Movement and scent are more likely to alert deer.
Question 7 sur 25
Where should hunter orange be worn to be most effective?
- On the front only, where other hunters usually see you
- On the boots only
- On the head and upper body, visible from all sides
- On a pack only, so it can be removed
Voir la réponse
Réponse: C. On the head and upper body, visible from all sides
Laws such as Pennsylvania's require orange on the head, chest and back, visible from 360 degrees.
Question 8 sur 25
Besides blaze orange, which bright color do some states, such as Wisconsin, now allow for hunter safety clothing?
- Dark green
- Bright red

Wisconsin allows blaze orange or fluorescent pink during firearm seasons.
Question 9 sur 25
Why should turkey hunters never wear red, white, blue or black clothing?
- Those colors are illegal for hunting clothing in every state during turkey season
- Those are the colors of a wild turkey gobbler's head and body
- Those colors scare turkeys away
- Those colors fade in the sun
Voir la réponse
Réponse: B. Those are the colors of a wild turkey gobbler's head and body
Another hunter could mistake a flash of red, white or blue for a gobbler's head.
Question 10 sur 25
How should you carry a harvested wild turkey out of the woods?
- Over your shoulder in full view
- Wrapped in blaze orange so it is not mistaken for a live bird
- Held up high so other hunters can clearly see its beard and fan
- Hidden in camouflage
Voir la réponse
Réponse: B. Wrapped in blaze orange so it is not mistaken for a live bird
Covering the bird keeps other hunters from seeing turkey colors moving through the woods.
Question 11 sur 25
You are calling turkeys and see another hunter coming toward you. What should you do?
- Stay silent and completely still until they walk past your setup
- Make a gobble call so they know where you are
- Wave your hand quickly
- Call out in a clear, loud voice to let them know you are there
Voir la réponse
Réponse: D. Call out in a clear, loud voice to let them know you are there
Never wave or use a turkey call to alert a hunter. Your voice tells them you are a person.
Question 12 sur 25
When turkey hunting, what kind of spot should you sit against?
- Open ground with nothing behind you, so you can see all around
- A small sapling
- The edge of a road

- To keep you connected to the tree while you climb up and down
- To pull up your gear
- To tie your stand to the ground
Voir la réponse

Use a lifeline from the time you leave the ground until you are back down.
Question 15 sur 25
How should you get your gun or bow into a tree stand?

- Carry it loaded in one hand
- Pull it up unloaded with a haul line after you are secure
- Carry it on your back while you climb so your hands are free
Voir la réponse
Réponse: C. Pull it up unloaded with a haul line after you are secure
Climb with both hands free, then raise unloaded firearms and bows with a haul line.
Question 16 sur 25

- Two
- Three: two hands and one foot, or two feet and one hand
- One

Three points of contact keep you steady if one hand or foot slips.

- Only after dark
- Only on ladder stands that are more than 20 years old and rusty
- Only while sleeping in the stand
Voir la réponse
Réponse: A. While climbing up or down, or getting into or out of the stand
Moving between the ladder or steps and the platform is a risky time, so stay connected the whole way.
Question 18 sur 25
How should the tree strap and tether be set?
- At knee height
- Tied to the platform
- Above head height with little slack
- Loose, so you can lean out to shoot
Voir la réponse
Réponse: C. Above head height with little slack
A short tether above your head keeps any fall short so you can get back on the stand.
Question 19 sur 25
You are hanging in your harness after a fall. Why must you act quickly?
- You will scare deer away from the area for the rest of the hunting season
- It is not urgent
- Hanging still can cut off blood flow to the legs and become life-threatening
- The harness will tear in a few seconds
Voir la réponse
Réponse: C. Hanging still can cut off blood flow to the legs and become life-threatening
Use a suspension relief strap to stand and move your legs, and call for help.
Question 20 sur 25
What should you check before using a tree stand?
- The stand, straps and harness for wear, and the tree for damage or weakness
- Only the color of the stand
- Only the seat padding
- Nothing, as long as it worked last year and has stayed on the same tree since then
Voir la réponse
Réponse: A. The stand, straps and harness for wear, and the tree for damage or weakness
Make sure the tree can hold both the stand and you.
Question 21 sur 25
Besides a harness, what should you take or do for tree stand safety?
- Leave your phone at home so it does not ring and scare game
- Tell someone your plan and carry a charged cell phone
- Hunt where no one can find you
- Skip the harness if the stand has a rail
Voir la réponse
Réponse: B. Tell someone your plan and carry a charged cell phone
If you fall, people need to know where you are, and you need a way to call.
Question 22 sur 25
In the diagram, why is shot 1 safe and shot 2 unsafe?
- Shot 2 is safe because the house is far
- Shot 1 is closer
- Shot 1 ends in an earth bank; shot 2 is against open sky, with a house hidden beyond the ridge
- Both are safe, because the hunter is kneeling and aiming very carefully at the deer
Voir la réponse
Réponse: C. Shot 1 ends in an earth bank; shot 2 is against open sky, with a house hidden beyond the ridge
A safe shot has a backstop. Never shoot at an animal on a ridge or skyline.
Question 23 sur 25
Which is the best backstop for a shot?
- The open sky above a wide field
- A pond behind the target
- A flat rock
- A hill or dirt bank behind the target
Voir la réponse

Dirt stops bullets safely. Water and rock cause ricochets.

Where should you aim for a quick, clean kill on big game?
- The hindquarters
- The neck
- The heart-lung area
- The head
Voir la réponse
Réponse: C. The heart-lung area
The vital area is the largest target that kills quickly and wastes the least meat.

Which animal position offers the best shot at the vitals?
- Facing toward you at long range
