Description

Hunting requirement for person under age 12. Conforms the definition of "accompanied and directly supervised" as it applies to the hunting requirements for persons under the age of 12 to that of the same term as it currently applies to the hunting requirements for pprentice hunters; "accompanied and directly supervised" means that a person over 18 maintains close visual and verbal contact with, provides direction to, and can immediately assume control of the firearm, bow, or crossbow from the person who is under the age of 12.
