Below you will find the Wisconsin Senate bill that is on its way to assembly allowing for the hunting age to be lowered from 12 to 10 years old. Of course its more than just changing the age, there are some restrictions like hunting with a "mentor" within "arms reach" and that between the mentor and youth hunter they may jointly carry only one firearm.
I am having a tough time understanding the difference between ages 10 and 12 and why this is a benefit to our state or sport. I do understand that getting kids to hunt at an early age is a great way to get them outdoors and to teach them the sport. However, I am worried this may be an accident waiting to happen.

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill makes various changes to the laws relating to restrictions on hunting and firearm possession and establishes a hunting mentorship program.
Accompaniment by parent or guardian
Under current law, a person who is the minimum hunting age but under the age of 16 may hunt or have a firearm in his or her possession or control if the person is accompanied by a parent or guardian and if he or she meets certain other requirements. This bill specifies that such a person may also hunt or have a firearm
SENATE BILL 167
in his or her possession or control if the person is accompanied by an individual who is at least 18 years old and who has been designated by the person’s parent or guardian.
Mentorship program
Current law requires, with certain exceptions, that every person who obtains a hunting approval must have a certificate of accomplishment issued by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) indicating that he or she has successfully completed the hunter education program or bow hunter education program established by DNR. Current law also generally prohibits hunting and firearm possession by any person under the age of 12. For persons who are at least 12 years old, but under the age of 16, current law allows hunting and firearm possession but imposes certain restrictions that vary depending on the person’s age. This bill creates a new exception to the general requirement that a person obtain a certificate of accomplishment in order to obtain a hunting approval. The bill also lowers the minimum hunting age from 12 years of age to ten years of age for persons who hunt under the hunting mentorship program established in this bill. The bill authorizes a person who is at least ten years of age to hunt without obtaining a certificate of accomplishment and to possess or control a firearm while hunting if the person has a valid hunting approval and is hunting with a qualified mentor. Under the hunting mentorship program, to qualify as a mentor, a person must be 18 years of age or older and be the parent or guardian of the person for whom he or she is serving as a mentor or be authorized by the parent or guardian to serve as the mentor. The bill provides that at all times when serving as a mentor, the mentor must be within arm’s reach of the person for whom he or she is serving as a mentor, must have a current valid hunting approval, and must have obtained a certificate of accomplishment or be exempt from the requirement to obtain a certificate of accomplishment. The bill provides that a mentor may take only one person hunting at a time and specifies that a mentor and a person who is hunting with the mentor may jointly have only one firearm or crossbow while hunting.
Other provisions
Under current law, a person who is 12 years of age or older may possess or control a firearm and may hunt with a firearm or bow and arrow on that person’s land or on land owned by his or her family if no license is required and if the firing of firearms is permitted on that land. This bill allows such a person also to hunt with a crossbow on that land.
The bill also creates a new exception to the general restrictions that apply to firearm possession by persons who are under a specified age. The bill provides that those age restrictions do not apply to a person who uses a firearm in target practice if the person is accompanied by his or her parent or guardian or by a person who is at least 18 years of age who is designated by the parent or guardian. 2009 − 2010 Legislature − 3 −
