Just wondering if anyone will be Hunting the January 7-31 late season shotgun on Long Island. I will be Hunting state land as usual during this season. I got my number for my reservation today in the mail and it was a horrible 1528 lol. My brother got 8! so I will be going out with him hopefully the first day. Best of luck to anyone that Hunts this late season.

for rocky point alone there are Approx 50 spots in rocky point and 50 spots in Otis pike, so thats a total of lets say 100 spots, there are 19 days to the shotgun season... so that it potentially 1,900 total hunting spots available for the season on those 2 lands

having number 1563 and thinking you will be hunting the 3rd day of the season is very wishful thinking (not saying impossible)

I have number 333 and hope i can find an available day by Jan 11th

Standby is you show up and "hope" someone else doesn't show if there are spots left over you "may" get a chance to go out

yes you can bring someone with you, you need to register that person (call them for instructions) in order to be let out in numerical order, if he/she is not registered you are let out last.

If you hunt under a friends # you have to forfeit your #, you cannot hunt as a guest with your buddy one day and then your buddy be your guest the next, unless you are hunting standby.

For shotgun season I hunt out in Hither Hills in Montauk. I have shot most of my deer in the last 2 weeks of the season. It seems to me after everyone goes nuts and chases the deer all around the park and fire randomly that when it settles down is the best time for me. Best of luck to everyone.

hey biz call them and ask where you will be hunting. i called them and was told id be hunting on the same property that everyone in the lottery hunts on. they do not have private property for the jan. shotgun season. they do for bow hunting. let me know what they say. good luck JT........
