<ns0:DigestText>
<html:p>Existing law establishes an archery season for the taking of deer with bow and arrow. Existing law generally prohibits a person taking or attempting to take deer during that archery season from carrying, or having under their immediate control, a firearm of any kind, except for an active or honorably retired peace officer, as specified.</html:p>
<html:p>This bill would repeal that prohibition.</html:p>
