Hunter Safety Graduate Patches....
 

Non Parker related question, I ask pardon.

I'm trying to finish up my collection of Safe Hunter, Hunter Education, Firearm Safety, etc etc patches.

My goal is to have one from every state, preferably an older one.

I still need:

Delaware
Hawaii
Nebraska
New Jersey
North Dakota
Oklahoma
Wyoming

Pic is part of my collection, I've added several since I took it.

Can anybody help? Happy to pay a fair price for my needs.

I'd also like to upgrade some of these for older versions if they exist.

Way cool! First time I have ever seen a collection like this.

I've been an instructor in Illinois for years, try to get back and help with at least one class a year.

It was a casual collection for a long time. I mostly picked them up out of .50 and $1 boxes at Boy Scout Memorabilia Swap Meets.

When I finally put them all in one place and figured out what I had, I realized I was halfway there. That made me little more serious about finishing the one from each state deal.

I'm pretty sure all the states I need did have a patch, at least at one time anyway.

I've seen pictures of Hawaii, Delaware, and Wyoming.

Nebraska, New Jersey, and North Dakota all have a patch for their Instructors at least, so I'm assuming there's a regular course patch for those states.

way cool....hope you find all of them...charlie

Nice collection, Destry. I see your patch from Washington State is a bit "improved" from when I took one of the early classes in 1959.

Makes me wonder whatever happened to my Ohio Safe Hunter patch. Pretty proud moment for me at 12 when my mom sewed that patch onto a hand-me-down Duxbak vest from my Grandpa..... Wish I had it now.

I think Alaska's hunter safety training is too young a program to have a patch, but I really don't know. I got a card for completing the course.

Richard,

I actually just got an Alaska patch, it's on it's way to me now.

There is an older cloth back version as well, could be 70's era but has a pretty 60's feel. I don't know what years all the different states started their programs, wish I could find that out.
