I have seen the discussion at several forums over time and have sat in on many a discussion concerning the topic of legally using two-way radios while deer hunting. So I fired off an email to Me DIFW and below is the response I got.

Tom,

They would be legal to use for communicating with partners but you must be sure that they are not used to drive deer in any way.

That's what they busted Babe Winkleman for. They said he was using them in the pursuit of game.

I started using walkie talkies this year to stay in contact with my 14 year-old son who hunts with me. I feel more comfortable knowing I can talk to him while he's over on his stand. He and I have a couple of stands that are nearly a half mile apart and the radio just make me feel better about the arrangement.
