It is a step to get more women and kids into bow hunting. They also adopted an apprentice hunting license this year. You do not need a firearms safety to hunt you can spent the $3 and you have to hunt with a certified hunter.
Michigan just adopted that apprentice program and lowered the minimum age to 10.
Michigan also has no minimum draw weight.
I hope people who teach kids to hunt will also emphasize shot placement.
