What’s in it
This bill changes the weapons requirements for nonambulatory hunters. Currently, nonambulatory hunters may only use a shotgun or a muzzleloading rifle while using an any sex deer hunting license during any established deer hunting season. The bill allows nonambulatory hunters to use the method of take authorized for the season being hunted while using an any sex deer hunting license. If a tag is filled in one of the seasons, the license will not be valid in subsequent seasons.
