Colorado Hunter Education Practice Exam

What is proper firearm etiquette when hunting with a group?

1. Always let the most experienced hunter shoot first

2. Fire at any game that comes into view regardless of shooting lanes

3. Make sure firearms are unloaded when not in use

4. Compete with others for shots

The correct answer is: Make sure firearms are unloaded when not in use

Proper firearm etiquette while hunting in a group is to always ensure that firearms are unloaded when not in use. This ensures safety for everyone in the group and prevents accidental shootings. Option A is incorrect because the most experienced hunter should not always have the first shot, as it is important for all members of the group to have an equal opportunity to hunt. Option B is incorrect as it goes against basic hunting safety principles and can result in dangerous situations. Option D is incorrect as hunting should be a team effort and not a competition. It is important to work together and communicate while hunting in a group.
