Bow Hunting

Bow hunting is permitted in the NWT and is subject to the same regulations as hunting with a firearm. Draw weight must be at least 20 kg at 700 mm draw. Arrows must have a broadhead point width of at least 25 mm at the widest point or a barbless three-bladed bodkin head and must not contain any explosive. Crossbows may be used for hunting in the NWT.
