AI Summary
This bill amends South Carolina's hunting regulations for antlered deer by extending the hunting season in Game Zones 1 and 2. Specifically, in Game Zone 1, hunters can now use archery equipment and firearms from October 11 through January 15 (previously ending on January 1), while in Game Zone 2, the same hunting method is permitted during the same extended period. The bill does not change the hunting seasons for Game Zones 3 and 4, which remain unchanged. Game Zones are specific geographical areas with distinct hunting regulations, and the bill focuses on modifying the open season dates for antlered deer hunting in the first two zones. The legislation will take effect upon approval by the Governor, potentially providing hunters with additional days to hunt antlered deer in these zones.
