I have taught firearms safety and hunting ethics to youth and adults for over three decades. I’m heavy on the ethics part. Modern hunting is not about the killing, it is about harvesting excess wildlife while following a set of well stated rules.
BUT...
Prior to buying that first hunting license you must fully understand firearms safety, and that there is no excuse for unethical hunters.
Every one of my students are mandated to memorize one statement, and that is.
Having personal ethics means doing the right thing even when no one is watching.
California decades ago started the beginning hunter safety classes.
Great programs, our son took them and are safe and good hunters.
Our grand kids have taken and are safe and good hunters.
