deer hunting season

New York deer hunting season is divided into two zones, the northern zone and the southern zone. A single hunting license is good for both zones. However, the deer hunting seasons are different for each zone. Our cottages are located in the Northern zone. Parts of the Southern zone are just south of the Salmon River just 8 miles south of our cottages. Click here for WMU map with northern and southern zone boundary. We hunt the northern zone. The seasons are longer and they start earlier affording us the luxury of some really comfortable deer hunting weather.

An extra doe tag is sometimes available under the deer management permit to holders of super sportsman or rifle licenses. However to get this permit you needed to apply by October 1st.
