[Michigan] Rep. Prestin announces bow hunter safety legislation
From GOPHouse.org:
State Rep. Dave Prestin this week announced his plan to allow Michigan bow hunters to carry a pistol with them for personal protection.
“Hunters can face many dangers in the woods, especially from close encounters with predator species like bears, wolves, and cougar,” said Prestin, R-Cedar River. “Bow hunters are very limited in their ability to respond if one of these animals becomes aggressive and decides to attack them.”
