41-6-13. Parental application for basic license for minor less than sixteen--Restrictions and requirements--Violation as misdemeanor. A resident hunting license may be issued only to a resident sixteen years of age or older. However, the parent or guardian of a resident who is less than sixteen years of age and meets the age requirements of § 41-6-12 may apply for the license for such person. If a license is granted on the application, the license authorizes hunting by the person only if accompanied by a parent, guardian, or responsible adult and is valid for the license year as provided by the applicable license and rules promulgated by the Game, Fish and Parks Commission pursuant to chapter 1-26. The requirement to be accompanied by an adult no longer applies when the licensee attains sixteen years of age. A violation of this section is a Class 2 misdemeanor.
