A year ago, while just starting Fifield Outfitters, LLC, Ryan decided he also wanted to find a way to give back and serve his community and other surrounding neighborhoods using his area of expertise and skills. Therefore, he decided to set a goal to become a New York State Certified Hunter Education Instructor. He was recently notified that he earned this certification! He’s had the pleasure of meeting, learning from, and working with several long time dedicated instructors such as Mr. Richard DuMond, who has put in 50 plus years of commitment towards Hunter Education. What a lot of people don’t realize, is all of these instructors teaching the gun, bow, and trapping courses VOLUNTEER their time while educating citizens including youth on ethics, safety, and becoming responsible hunters. Ryan believes this is time well spent because he feels he can make a difference in ensuring that the sport he loves carries on for generations to come. 🙂
