Michigan Governor Signs Hunter Recruitment Bills
Gov. Jennifer Granholm has signed HB 5192 and SB 1105 in an effort to recruit young hunters into the sport by lowering or eliminating unnecessary age restrictions. Senate Bill 1105 creates an apprentice hunting license which allows people to be introduced to hunting under direct supervision of a licensed adult hunter before completing hunter education. To become fully licensed and hunt alone, the new hunter must complete a hunter education course. House Bill 5192 lowers the big game hunting minimum age from 14 to 12 and the small game hunting minimum age from 12 to 10. Both bills are part of Families Afield, a program designed by the U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance, National Shooting Sports Foundation and National Wild Turkey Federation (Source: USSA)
