Don't let that shake you. I'm looking at the hunting regs for my state right now, and it's 129 pages. Pick a common species that you would like to hunt and select a public hunting area and just read the rules for those. Just go out and enjoy the hunt, and don't try to read and absorb the entire rulebook for all species and all areas all at once. The best advice is to go hunting with someone who has experience. That's the part you will remember most.
