Minnesota Firearms Safety Hunter Education Practice Exam

Which of the following is NOT a recommended safety practice when hunting?

1. Using alcohol or drugs before or during hunting

2. Wearing hunter orange

3. Notifying someone of your hunting plan

4. Checking the weather forecast before going hunting

The correct answer is: Using alcohol or drugs before or during hunting

Using alcohol or drugs before or during hunting is not a recommended safety practice because it impairs judgment and coordination, making it dangerous to handle a weapon. Wearing hunter orange, notifying someone of your hunting plan, and checking the weather forecast are all recommended safety practices as they help ensure the safety of both the hunter and those around them.
