Hey guys, I'm very new to bow hunting, and have never done it before, but I am interested in it, and trying to gather information, I was wondering what is the law, if any on carrying a sidearm? I was thinking .44 Magnum Revolver? Any information on this, or anything bow hunting would be greatly appreciated!

From the 2011-12 Outdoor Annual "It is unlawful to be in possession of a firearm while hunting with a broadhead HUNTING point during the Archery-Only season, except a person licensed to carry a concealed handgun in Texas may carry a concealed handgun. NOTE: A firearm may be possessed in camp, in a motor vehicle, or while hunting lawful game other than whitetail or mule deer and turkey (e.g., exotics, feral hogs, squirrels)."

You can't just during archery only season.

If you have a CHL, you can carry it during archery season, AS long as it is concealed.

You can't just during archery only season. Exactly; and there's a reason for that. Too many Bozos’ were shooting deer with a pistol when bow hunting and that one month is reserved for bows only. We are lucky to have that privilege.

But for all rest of the season, no limits I presume?

The archery only season is the only time that restriction for firearms is in place.
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true
Mainstream news might be fun to watch
