I was wondering if I need to take a HSC here in Texas before I can hunt? I have a HSC from California where I am from, but am stationed here in the Army. I have my hunting/fishing license that I picked up on post, since active duty gets them for free here in Texas(thanks Texas) but do I need to take the course as well before I am able to hunt here, or am I good to go since I already have the license?

As long as you have proof of hunter safety you should be ok. But it wouldn't hurt to call tpwd and check.

Q: If I move to another state or desire to hunt in another state, do I have to take that states Hunter Ed course?

A: No. The Hunter Ed certification you receive has reciprocity in every state of Mexico and the USA, and every province of Canada. You do not have to take the course again. Be advised that there are a few confused clerks at some stores where hunting licenses are sold who think you must have a Maryland certification to hunt in Maryland. That is incorrect. Any states certification is recognized by any other state.

Jeh7mmmag is as usual spot on. IHEA International Hunters Education Association is the organization that oversees hunters education and all 50 states, Canada and some other countries use the same criteria from them for certification. As long as you have your card "Certification" from one location "State" it is good in another.

Nope, you're good. Might also check into how much a license it. I know my son, who is a Texas resident, get a FREE Super Combo when he comes home (he is active duty). Not sure if that works the same for non-resident active duty or not.

Thanks for all the responses guys. Looks like Im good to go. Sorry for the late thanks ha. Been super busy.
Dogcatcher, I am with 3d CR.
And to Flyby, yes Texas does issue free hunting/fishing licenses to all active duty, I came across that jewel of information when I first got here lol. Thanks for the heads up though.
