As Passed the House HB 2555 allows a minor child to use their parent's or legal guardian's big game permit or tag under certain conditions. The permit or tag must be transferred in a manner prescribed by the Game and Fish Commission. The child must be accompanied by the parent or guardian and must be within 50 yards when the animal is taken. The child must possess a class F or G license, and, if under 14, have satisfactorily completed the Arizona or another Game and Fish Department approved hunter education course.
Any big game counts toward the child's bag limit.
The bill passed the Natural Resources Committee without any amendments.
