NWTF mentoring programs offer hunters a chance to give back

The NWTF's mentoring programs allow experienced hunters to show new hunters – children and adults – the knowledge and skills to carry on the sport.

Share your hunting knowledge with beginning hunters

The NWTF is looking for avid hunters who want to share their knowledge and love of the outdoors with beginning hunters.

Sharing the hunting tradition with someone is an extremely rewarding experience. Mentoring provides an opportunity to give back to the outdoors and conserve our hunting heritage for future generations.

Moreover, mentoring provides an opportunity to give back to the person that mentored you!
