reg season tag transfer ?

[Jeremy K]

The guys land I hunt just had his brother in law in town, while in town he got his hunting tag.Now that he has left he signed his tag over to me to fill, is this a legal transfer of a tag, I've never received or transferred a tag before and wanted to make sure it was legit before I did something wrong.

[josephmrtn]

[tughillhunter]

[josephmrtn]

[arrow nocker]

im assuming you mean buck.Good thing you ask first.You can et into some serious trouble for that.But doe tags all he has to do is sing the line.Thats it.

and be sure to follow the procedures that go along with signing it over, so you do not get in trouble for having it.

only dmp's can be transferred.

How To Transfer A DMP Deer Carcass Tag

•Hunter Art Fern of this DMP carcass tag must sign bottom.

•The DMP carcass tag is given to Pete Moss.

•Hunter Pete Moss must record the DOC# tag on his reporting panel. This allows this DMP carcass tag to be transferred.

•Hunter Pete Moss is allowed only two transferred DMPs per year whether he uses the tag(s) or not.

•If Hunter Pete Moss does not use the DMP Deer Tag, he can give it back to Art Fern or give it to another hunter. The other hunter must then record the DOC# from the DMP carcass tag on his/her reporting panel.

REMEMBER:

Hunting licenses are not

transferable. Only DMP carcass tags can

be used by another hunter.

NOTE:

To report a deer taken on a

transferred DMP, the hunter who

took the deer must call the automated

reporting system (1-866-426-3778) or

report via the internet at www.dec.ny.gov

using the transferred DMP carcass tag

DOC# and his/her own date of birth,

along with other required information

(see page 17).
