According to the regulations of the ODNR website:
It shall be unlawful to use any device capable of transmitting or receiving a person’s voice to aid in the hunting or taking of deer.
That doesn't mean you cant have them for communicating and/or safety reasons.
Man that is vauge.... must be dang near impossible to enforce.... I guess that law in and of itself is just a deterannt... assuming people want to abide by the laws, having one in place will make most folks conform to them.... those who break the law would probably do it anyway, legal or not, right or wrong.
Anyway... sorry for the hi-jack.... don't get down MightyMite.... far far worse could of happened.... could have made a bad shot or something... at least you got to have an encounter!
