HCAP question

zlezlius

Doing HCAP shortly. Was reading training manual, good bit of useful and interesting stuff there, also a lot of stuff to remember as in latin names desease names etc. Someone said that you could use your own notes during the test, just wondering if thats true? (:D) Also is it the test kind of exam with a, b, c answers or what? In other words is it hard to get it passed? Thanks lads

It's a multi choice test. As far as I can remember there is 40 questions and you have to get 32 right to pass. Handy enough once you read the manual. Keep in mind minimum energy requirements for bullets, disease recognition and season dates and you'll be grand.

What is the hcap for lads I know for shooting deer but when do you need it or who looks for it is it the Garda or is it coillte or one of these.

The Hcap is required to shoot deer on Coillte forestry. There are sample Hcap multiple choice questions on the web if google hcap should bring them up for you.

ah sure !

as said above it is easy as long as you read the manual but i doubt you can use your notes though.
Open season dates always come up so learn them.
Learnt many things when going through the manual.

50 multiple choice questions you must get 40 correct to pass and go on to the range test at the Midlands Rifle Range.

Lots of guys I know who don't stalk on Coillte land also did it to improve their knowledge
