Carrying another person's hunting license

[Playa]

My 9 yr old is hunting with me this year and if his head wasn't attached he would lose it, seems fairly common for a 9yr old. But I don't want him to lose his license. Any law against me carrying it in my wallet?

For kids at least I think it's no problem. I've been checked a couple of times with a kid and I was holding his license for the same reason as you.

I carry my kids license. They don't hunt unless I'm with them. Never looked into the legal side. Just common sense. Will be interesting to see more educated replies.

I always carried Zach's license when he was little. When he got old enough to hunt alone, then he carried his own license.

Same here for both sons.

I'm 36 and my dad should probably carry mine[emoji33]
I've had to turn around and go get mine a few times. Once I switched from a wallet to a front pocket wallet/money clip I leave my hunting license in my truck or at the house.

My son is 11 and I've been carrying his ever since we started getting him one.

I carry my son's, even when he's not with me. I'm interested to know if there's a law against it also. Never really thought much about it until now. I guess they could accuse you of intending to tag a deer with his tag. I have been checked by a game warden while fishing. I had mine and my wife's and my buddy had his girlfriend's. They didn't say anything about that, but it's a little different since you don't have to use tags.

I asked the main game warden for Lubbock county what to do with both of my kids license. She told me that since I was supervising the hunt, I should have it in my possession. She has checked us 3 times dove hunting and has never asked any questions when I rolled out a 3 licenses.

I don't think your kid's license would be a problem

Wife/brother/neighbor etc is gonna raise a few questions in the least

Call gw fir ur county. They can tell u for sure. Don't see where it would b a problem but better to b sure.

I put my kids in his backpack with his drink and a snack.

My granddaughters license stays in my wallet all the time. I've never had any problems.

A little bit different for my son as he was 16 yrs. old before he started hunting. I gave him a small (approx. 3"x4") zippered nylon pouch to carry his hunting license, a small Swiss Army knife, zip ties, and a lanyard with a whistle and small squeeze activated flashlight and told him he was responsible for always carrying the pouch and lanyard on him whenever we were in the field hunting. So far, 4 yrs. later, he has always kept up with his license and lanyard.

Dave
