Iowa HF646 restricts hunting seasons for nonambulatory hunters using specific firearms with a deer hunting license.

Iowa HF646 modifies hunting regulations for nonambulatory hunters, limiting the use of shotguns, muzzleloading rifles, and certain handguns or rifles to established firearm deer hunting seasons. Previously, these hunters could use these firearms during any deer hunting season. The bill requires a physician's verification for the issuance of an any sex deer hunting license to nonambulatory residents. If the license is used during one season, it becomes invalid for subsequent seasons.
