Louisiana Liberalizes Crossbow Regulations
On June 5, 2008, Louisiana Governor, Bobby Jindal approved Senate Bill 165 amending the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) regulation on crossbow use. This bill allows the LDWF commission to “establish the following special deer hunting seasons: (1) a bow and arrow only season, and (2) a bow and arrow and crossbow season.” The commission will also have the responsibility for regulating the length of the special seasons and determining the areas for approved hunting. Prior to this bill, only hunters who qualified for a handicap permit or hunters age 60 and older could use crossbows.
Additionally, crossbow legislation is pending in South Carolina under Senate Bill 691. If approved as written, this bill will define archery equipment as “a bow and arrow, a long bow, a recurve bow, a compound bow, or a crossbow."
