Last I heard on the subject. http://www.outdooralabama.com/news/release.cfm?ID=955September 09, 2011 The Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources announces the limited expansion of the opportunity for bowhunters to carry handguns during archery-only season, which opens October 15, 2011. This regulation change creates the opportunity statewide for archery hunters otherwise authorized by law to carry handguns in the field for personal protection. However, such handguns may not be used to hunt game animals that are not already open to firearms hunting. While some consideration had been given to expanding the regulation change to include all firearms, such action has been postponed for further evaluation. Conservation Commissioner N. Gunter Guy Jr. said, “This change has been made to conform to an existing regulation that allows the possession of handguns by legally licensed persons in any Wildlife Management Area (220-2-.21). We also want to afford more opportunity for hunters for personal protection and for taking legal game such as feral hogs. However, before action is taken to allow all firearms for archery hunters, we want to ensure that there is ample public notice and time for a comment period.” The Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (ADCNR) promotes wise stewardship, management and enjoyment of Alabama’s natural resources through five divisions: Marine Police, Marine Resources, State Lands, State Parks, and Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries.

what is the law with carrying a pistol for protection while bow hunting. me and a friend were talking and we feel that its against the rules to carry during bow season. We have a new lease and we dont want to wonder around the woods in the dark without one until we get a feel for what kind of creatures may be out there.
chris The last time I checked, our Constitution still hasn't been amended to prohibit citizens from bearing arms in defense of themselves, even when they go hunting: Constitution of Alabama 1901 Article I
That the great, general, and essential principles of liberty and free government may be recognized and established, we declare:
SECTION 2
People source of power.
That all political power is inherent in the people, and all free governments are founded on their authority, and instituted for their benefit; and that, therefore, they have at all times an inalienable and indefeasible right to change their form of government in such manner as they may deem expedient.
SECTION 26
Right to bear arms.
That every citizen has a right to bear arms in defense of himself and the state.
SECTION 36
Construction of Declaration of Rights.
That this enumeration of certain rights shall not impair or deny others retained by the people; and, to guard against any encroachments on the rights herein retained, we declare that everything in this Declaration of Rights is excepted out of the general powers of government, and shall forever remain inviolate.
(emphasis added) We've got a Constitution to go by and they all swore to support it.

I think we need a sticky on this topic. It gets asked 12 times a year. More like 12 times per week. IT'S LEGAL. THE END.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

I've never felt unarmed with a compound bow in my hands. It would be much superior to a small handgun against a chupacabra or a yahoo.

Ill carry mine just in case I run up on a group of hogs on the way out. Ive always wondered why some would throw away a deer hunt to unload a handgun on a snake? If you see a rattler you want dead stick a field point through his head and move on...quietly.
