Hunting in Oregon? Not so fast…
The Oregon Legislature has recently proposed a bi-annual renewal process for residents who qualify for a Disabled Hunting Permit in the state. The change mirrors the 2 year duration of a handicapped permit for drivers. The Statesman Journal opened the floor to residents of Salem, Oregon to see what they thought of the change.
While many readers spoke in favor of the 2-year duration license, some feel as though the change is unsupportive to disabled persons who wish to lead active and free lifestyle in hunting.
My question is, why not demand a biannual renewal from every person who obtains a hunting license in the state? It seems as though it would be a wise choice to prevent accidents and prove competency over time. Currently, the non-disabled hunting permits are good for as long as the hunter remains an Oregon resident.
