A bill for an act relating to the purchasing of a youth deer hunting license and tag.

This bill requires Iowa's Department of Natural Resources to sell youth deer hunting licenses during the same periods as general licenses, including all established hunting seasons. It allows youth hunters to use a purchased license and tag in the season it was issued or any future season, provided they use the same hunting method authorized for that specific season. However, if the tag is filled (used) during one season, the license becomes invalid for subsequent seasons. The policy directly affects young hunters (typically ages 16-18) seeking to participate in Iowa's deer hunting programs.
