Hunting clinics and mentored hunts are offered by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife staff, volunteers, and partners who conduct to teach various aspects of hunting, including game species biology and habitat, hunting equipment and gear, hunting techniques, field dressing and butchering, and food preparation. Most events are hands-on and include a mentored hunt and practice at the range.

The coach or mentor is there to answer questions, share hunting knowledge and skills in the field, and to assist if an animal is harvested.

Prior to events, participants must have their hunter education certification, as well as applicable license and tag unless otherwise noted. Hunter education information can be found here, and license information here.
