Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to removing restrictions on crossbow size and draw weight when used for hunting

AI Summary

This bill removes the restrictions on crossbow size and draw weight when used for hunting in New York. Previously, crossbows used for hunting were required to have a minimum limb width of 17 inches, a minimum peak draw weight of 100 pounds, and a maximum peak draw weight of 200 pounds, as well as a minimum overall length of 24 inches. This bill eliminates these specific requirements, allowing for more flexibility in the type of crossbows that can be used for hunting purposes in the state.
