Requesting the Joint Committee on Government and Finance study the creation of a hunting license permitting crossbow hunting.

    WHEREAS, West Virginia currently permits the use of a crossbow for hunting only for individuals who have a permanent physical impairment which renders them so disabled as to be unable to use a conventional bow and arrow device; and

    WHEREAS, Many states allow the use of crossbows by non-disabled individuals; and

    WHEREAS, States that allow crossbow hunting have varying restrictions, license fees, safety training requirements and specifications on crossbows permitted; and therefore be it

    Resolved by the Legislature of West Virginia:

    That the Joint Committee on Government and Finance is hereby requested to conduct a study on the creation of a hunting license permitting crossbow hunting; and, be it

    Further Resolved, That the Joint Committee on Government and Finance report to the Legislature, on the first day of the regular session, 2012 on its findings, conclusions and recommendations together with drafts of any legislation to effectuate its recommendations; and, be it

    Further Resolved, That the expenses necessary to conduct this study, to prepare a report and to draft necessary legislation be paid from legislative appropriations to the Joint Committee on Government and Finance.
