HF 147 Non-ambulatory method of take

Link to the bill: HF 147

This bill would allow a non-ambulatory hunter to use a shot gun, muzzle loader or straight wall rifle during any season except for archery. In early ML the non-ambulatory hunter could use their weapon of choice, same with late ML.
 
This bill made it through the House as HF 551. There was an amendment filed by the Senate today that would make shot gun, muzzle loader and straight wall rifles legal in bow season for non-ambulatory hunters. This changes the law back to the way it was in 2019 and adds the straight wall to all seasons. I think this bill was intended to add straight wall to the existing law but someone saw the opportunity to change it back to guns allowed in bow season.

To keep it in perspective, I believe there are only 30 or so non-ambulatory tags issued every year. I don't know how many are filled or by what method of take.
