The Michigan DNR has announced that hunters 16 and under can get a free junior deer hunting license at all Meijer stores in Michigan on September 11 and 12.

Youths must be accompanied by an adult, and need to bring the free junior deer hunting license coupon to the store's sporting goods department.

The coupon is valid for a single junior deer hunting license, a $20 value, or mentored youth hunting license. Those who hunt in Michigan also must purchase a base license, which costs $6 for youths ages 10-16.

The base license allows hunters to hunt small game and purchase additional hunting licenses. The mentored youth hunting license, valid only for hunters under the age of 10, includes a base license and does not require separate purchase of the base license.
