Arkansas has a 3 pt on one side rule ... Kids under 16 can take any buck as their first buck, then they are subject to A.R. .... But each year, Arkansas also has a youth hunt, the weekend before the regular gun opener for Arkansas, where they can take any deer, and have first shot at the bucks with Modern Gun. We at that time have already had Archery open for 6 weeks, and 1 st muzzleloading would have opened for about 8 days the third week of Oct. So folks have already stirred up the woods plenty good.
