Georgia: New Alcohol Limit for Hunters
Recently Georgia house passed SB 136 that would lower from 0.10 to 0.08 the legal intoxication limit for boaters and hunters. That’s the same as it is for drivers. I had never thought about it… Did you know your state might have a legal limit for hunters? Well, take a look at the map I dug up. For example, the gray states restrict the possession and/or discharge of a firearm by a person (any hunter included) who is legally drunk. It makes good sense, you obviously shouldn’t drink and hunt with a firearm, or a bow for that matter…or climb a tree stand. A few beers after the evening hunt is okay, but NEVER before it.
