Our Purpose and Intent

Recognizing my responsibilities to wildlife, habitat and future generations, I pledge:

To conduct myself in the field so as to make a positive contribution to wildlife and ecosystems.

To improve my skills as a woodsman and marksman to ensure humane harvesting of wildlife.

To comply with all game laws, in the spirit of fair chase, and to influence my companions accordingly.

To accept my responsibility to provide all possible assistance to game law enforcement officers.

To waste no opportunity to teach young people the full meaning of this code of ethics.

To reflect in word and behavior only credit upon the fraternity of sportsmen, and to demonstrate abiding respect for game, habitat and property where I am privileged to hunt.
