SB 391 Pennsylvania Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending Title 34 (Game) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in game or wildlife protection, further providing for regulations.

SB 391 changes Pennsylvania's hunting regulations by setting the start date for the regular antlered deer hunting season to the first Monday following Thanksgiving. This directly affects deer hunters and wildlife management agencies by establishing a fixed annual opening date, replacing the previous schedule. The bill amends Section 2102 of Title 34 (Game) to add this specific provision, creating a clear, predictable timeline for the season. The change will take effect 60 days after the bill is enacted.
