What’s in it
AI summary People who cannot walk can use a special deer hunting license to hunt during any deer season. This change allows them to use a shotgun, a muzzleloading rifle, or a straight wall cartridge rifle. However, they still cannot use these weapons during seasons that are for bow hunting only.1
