AN ACT CONCERNING BOW AND ARROW HUNTING PRACTICES IN DEER AND TURKEY MANAGEMENT ZONE 11.

HB 6239 would update bow hunting regulations in Deer and Turkey Management Zone 11. Property owners must notify neighbors, neighborhood associations, and local police when bow hunting occurs on their land and obtain permission from all tenants. The bill requires bow hunters to stay at least 40 yards from trails, roads, sidewalks, and property lines, and bans baiting on private land. It also establishes a task force to study deer population control methods in the zone.
