I would say don't . Out here one might hunt theany legal weaponseason with well any legal weapon bow rifle handgun M/L
and we have small game seasons that run w/the big game seasons. The special ( bow M/L ) seasons will get you and your gear impounded if you have a M/L or side arm or shotgun while your bow hunting or any non M/L firearm during the M/L seasons . Like wise it could be gray at best to carry any rifle to a duck blind .

Call the local DNR, or Game Warden for your area and get it from him. Get his name too, so, if you ever get a ticket for it, you know EXACTLY who you talked to about it.

During bow season I always carry my .45 for protection, which as of thisseason is finally legal. If firearms and bow are both in season, I carry my .357 mag along with my bow if I still have a tag to fill. If I am only hunting with firearms I take out my shotgun onlyor ML with .357 on my side for close range shots and protection. However, I have a couple hunting buddies that carry out ML and shotguns both. They like to have a choice depending on what shot may present itself...

i think it is illegal to carry a gun during bow season unless it is a handgun and you have a ccp
i hope since my dad does hunting in 08 that Way i can carry my bow and he can carry the ml or shotgun when it is season i wold assume what he Carry's would not matter to what i carry
since i have my license and he has his

It is legal in Michigan, but I would check your state regs. There may be an issue if you are hunting two different types of game though.

I know in Michigan you can take to different rifles for deer hunting though, I asked.

It really depends on each state. In IL, during archery season, you can only carry a bow, nothing else. But during shotgun deer season,(if I understand it correctly) you may carry a shotgun, ML, and deer-legalrevolver all at once if you choose. I don't know why a guy would need all three, but I think you could.

I wouldn't call the idea stupid, necessarily. But I do recommend contacting your local friendly conservation officer and ask him!
