Pennsylvania HB1915 amends Title 34 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to require the Pennsylvania Game Commission to initiate and administer junior hunter projects and a youth antlered deer season. These initiatives aim to increase and sustain interest in hunting among young people in the state. The youth antlered deer season will run for up to five continuous days before the regular firearms deer season. Participants in these projects must hold a junior hunting license or a permit to hunt alongside a mentor, and comply with all game laws and regulations.
