What seems to be the difference between the two $29 and the $18 course that is keeping people from taking the cheaper one?

The 29$ one I took read it too me and had a lot of animations with it . Way better than the md one I took

The $18 one I took was broken down into "chapters." It had pictures of actual places, people, and some graphic pictures of what happened to people with injuries from firearm failures. It was narrated very well and stressed the importance of ACTT and blaze orange. It took me about 6 hours over two days to complete.

You guys with the $18 course were lucky! I researched all of the classes and decided to take the $18 one. Waited until the following weekend to sign up and take it and *POOF* the only ones that showed up on the Texas site were the $29.50 one and one that was over $30. I opted for the $29.50 one. I had already taken the MD course online and paid my $15 for that but couldn't get into a Field Day class.

After all the money spent, I have a hunting license but nowhere decent to hunt.

Did this today, worked fine. Added it to my Compass account and now I can purchase the stuff online.

Thanks for posting the info OP.

My actual license came in about 7 days.

 

[Major Major]

Yep it works

Everything completed on line. The TX course is I think one of the same vendors as the MD course. I found it to be thorough and actually leaned a few things

Congrats! The plus with the TX course is NO field day! Now get out there and hunt! Good luck and be safe!

Thanks everyone that posted about this. I took and passed the Maryland online course but could not find a field day. I will give this Texas online course a shot!

Thanks!

Thank you for the heads up on this. I took the Maryland online course this year and never found a field day that was open when I was available.

I took the TX $18 online only course.
I did all the tests, then had to go thru the videos before it would issue temporary certificate. But it is done. Extremely easy, spouse takes it after work tomorrow. Then off to store for Maryland.

I just passed the TX course. I took the $18 course and it took me 4 hours. You have to click on all 16 chapters to include the exams and test. I then went on COMPASS on MD DNR and paid for my license and printed it off. Thanks guys

To the OP -- I can't thank you enough for bringing this to light. I was worried that I would miss the season due to no field day, but instead, I landed my first deer on Saturday morning! So happy I found this.

Congrats man. Save me a steak lol

As the OP, I'm really glad this is working out for quite a few people, and it's awesome to see the harvest!

I know that the course focuses on safety, and I can't say enough how important that is. While the Texas online-only program tested favorably vs programs that include a field day, please watch out for each other out there while hunting, and each others' safe gun handling practices, just as you would during a field day test.

Again, congrats to everyone for whom this is working, and especially those of you who have brought home game!

How long is it good for? or is there no expiration date.

 

[Mooseman]

Do you have to take the course all at one time or can you do it during several sittings/

I took the MD online course and field day in June this year. Test was simple but took a bit of time to get through all the reading. Field days was too simple and I would not want to hunt in the same field as some of the people. Instructors were great. I got my quota back in the 80's and don't hunt now but I knew the HQL was coming and ... well ... "prepped".

+1 for Texas. Thanks OP
