Anyone confirm if the 2012 Deer Hunting Season dates were released by the DEC yet? I see nothing on the website yet. From the proposal it looks like the following: Southern Zone Bow - Oct 1st to Nov 16th Regular - Nov 17th to Dec 9th Muzzle - Dec 10th to Dec 18th Northern Zone Bow - Sept 27th to Oct 19th Early Muzz - Oct 20th to Oct 26th Regular - Oct 27th to Dec 9th Muzzle - Dec 10th to Dec 16th Then there is talk about the youth hunt, which would be before bow for both Zones? Anyways, does anyone else have some info? ** Edit ** Here is a quick update from the DEC as of 7/10/12 John, The October 1 Southern Bow opener is close to being finalized, and we should be issuing a news release on it very soon. The fate of the Youth Hunt is less clear; there is currently a bill, passed by both Houses of the Legislature, awaiting delivery to the Governor, that would effectively block the Youth Hunt from occurring, given the proposed regulation wording.
