About the Course

The Internet + Field Course is ideal for those under 17 years of age and adults wanting a more hands-on field and live-fire experience during the basic course. We recommend younger students be accompanied by an adult during the field course. The certification process consists of two parts:

  • Online Course: Complete the FREE TPWD on NRA online course option.
  • Field Course: Attend a course with a TPWD certified instructor. The fee for the Field Course is $15.00. Some instructors may charge additional fees associated with a shooting range or other facility.

ONLINE COURSE: Free Online courses include TPWD and NRA. For TPWD, please print out the results of the FINAL QUIZ. For NRA, please print off the Field Course Voucher. Both allow you entry to an approved Field Course. Be sure to register for a known field course near you prior to taking the online course. Note: If you search a browser for an online course, you may get information about PAY-FOR courses which apply only to those 17 years of age or older.

FIELD COURSE: A Field Course is typically completed in about 4 hours (min.) a discussion of ethics, a skills course and live-fire exercises. You must pre-register for this course, preferably before you complete the free online course.

ARRIVAL: When you arrive at the Field Course:

  • Pay the $15 fee to the instructor. Some instructors may charge additional fees for a shooting range or other facility.
  • Demonstrate good knowledge, skills and attitude.
  • Take the written exam and score at least 75% to pass.

SPECIAL Class date of Feb. 17 at 1:00 p.m. for Local Boy Scout Troop only. REQUIRED READING BELOW FOR PARENTS: ATTENTION KIDS: PLEASE DO NOT use the "Register now" button on this web site without FIRST having a RESPONSIBLE PARENT read this entire paragraph. (Parents should NOT register themselves on this site for this class unless they are to be an actual student.) Prospective students and ESPECIALLY PARENTS should see details about this "home study completion course" on the "Other Courses" page at www.DentonCountySports.com. Students MUST PRE-REGISTER AND PAY ALL FEES IN ADVANCE at www.DentonCountySports.com in order to be assured of having a slot (or slots) in any given class. Total cost per student is $49.04 (and up to one sit-in parent at no cost). Due to generally having several sit-in parents in our SMALL classes, the number of "Open" seats showing on the TPWD web site software is NOT necessarily going to be accurate for any given "Field Day" date at DCSA. It is imperative that BEFORE registering with TPWD, the student (and if applicable, sit in parent) pre-register on the Denton County Sports Association website. The Eventbrite software on the Denton County Sports Association (DCSA) web site will (1) promptly e-mail a confirming "ticket" (or tickets) to present upon arrival at the "Field Day" and (2) will STOP accepting students or sit-in parent registrations when any given class date reaches maximum capacity.  With up to 10 students, the class hours will be from 1:00 to 5:30 p.m.  If 12 or more students, this class will be likely split into 2 relays around 3:00 p.m.  The first relay should should still be completed around 5:30. The second relay will get a break and complete their final portions of the class (shooting, testing and skills trail) from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m.
