What’s in it
AI summary People hunting during the late split archery season would be allowed to use a crossbow. Currently, crossbows are only permitted for certain older hunters or people with specific physical limitations. This change expands who can use a crossbow during that specific hunting period.1
Read the official explanation
Under current law, a crossbow is a legal method of take when hunting deer during the late muzzleloader season, during bow season if the hunter is over the age of 70, or by certain individuals who are incapable of using a bow and arrow under the conditions in which a bow and arrow is permitted, with the applicable license depending on the situation. This bill allows a person hunting with a bow license during the late split archery season to use a crossbow.
