What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill eliminates the requirement that a person be at least ten years of age

to hunt under the hunting mentorship program. The bill also eliminates the limit

on the number of hunting devices that a mentor and the person hunting with the

mentor may have in their possession while hunting. Finally, the bill prohibits a

person who is serving as a mentor in a group hunting party from killing a deer for

the person being mentored or using a deer carcass tag issued to the person being

mentored.
