No person may be afield at any time, with a gun or other firearm or a bow and arrow, while intoxicated or under the influence of alcoholic beverages or drugs. Upon conviction of a person for violating this section, that person's hunting license is void. The judge of the convicting court shall take the license, mark it revoked, and send it to the department. If the conviction is reversed on appeal, the license must be restored to the defendant. Game wardens, including special wardens, have the authority of a general peace officer in the enforcement of this section. In addition to the penalty provided in this chapter, any person convicted of committing a subsequent offense under this section is ineligible for a hunting license in this state for two years from and after the conviction.
