Maryland shooter qualification sessions set for managed deer hunters

The Maryland Department of Natural Resources has posted its schedule of shooter qualification sessions for the 2025 season, with more than 20 sessions at 10 locations across the state from June through December. These events allow hunters to take the necessary proficiency test required to obtain a Shooter Qualification Card in order to participate in many of the state’s managed deer hunts scheduled in the fall and winter.

Additional sessions may be available upon reservation.
