| Long recognized as the most comprehensive youth hunting program anywhere in North America, the Youth Hunter Education Challenge (YHEC) is NRA's "graduate studies" program in outdoor skills and safety training for young hunters. Open only to those that have completed state hunter-safety training, the program is conducted under simulated hunting conditions to provide the best practicle environment for reinforcing and testing a young hunter's skills. INYHEC events offer many simulated hunting situations. These challenges are designed to hone the skills necessary to be a successful, but more importantly, a safe and responsible hunter. Participants are expected to compete and be scored in each of the 8 challenges, which are: Archery Rifle Shotgun Muzzle Loading Orienteering Wildlife Identification Hunter's Safety Trail Hunter's Exam |
