I see they are allowing kids between the age of 14-15 to take an either sex deer with a firearm in October.Now i think its great for the kids but really think this is a bad decision!People will be abusing this law to shoot the big buck before hunting season guaranteed.In PA they have a youth deer hunt but its doe only,which is the only way to do it to be fair IMO.Why allow this and not allow crossbows during archery season "GEEZE",whoever thinks of these laws are definitely stupid people!!!
