The property I am guiding a youth at for the youth weekend is shared by another couple of hunters.My understanding is that during the youth hunt the licensed adult hunter must be with the youth the entire time. Last year the other hunter on the property and their youth split up and went to two different stands several hundred yards apart. Is this legal? I politely said something to the adult and he told me I was completely wrong so I left it alone. Does the adult have to stay with the youth the entire time or are they allowed to split up?

The adult hunter is there to assist the youth hunter. The adult has to be in close proximaty but also able to constantly communicate. This is not a set distance but I can say that it is not very far.
(4) A youth who hunts a deer under this subsection must be accompanied by an adult of at least eighteen (18) years of age who: (A) does not possess a firearm, bow and arrow, or crossbow while in the field; (B) possesses a valid hunting license of any type that is not an apprentice license; (C) must not accompany more than two (2) youth hunters at any one (1) time; and (D) must be in close proximity and able to communicate with the youth hunter at all times.
