Is it legal to hunt while under the influence of alcohol?
Answer: 
The only reference we could find is Idaho Code 18-3302B which states you cannot possess a concealed weapon while under the influence of alchol or drugs. Idaho Code 37-2732C(e) says you cannot possess a firearm while under the influence of certail controlled substances.  We know of no code prohibiting hunting while under the influence of alcohol. Injury to property or persons by careless handling of a firearm has penalties associated with it.  However, in Hunter Education, we stress to new hunters that it is best to avoid the use of alcohol while hunting.
