can you shoot more than one buck

[LuckyPickle123]

With a bow in some parts of the state. May be a rookie question but ive seen some guys on here with two bucks with a bow this year. I wont name names.

[LuckyPickle123]

They have even said this is my second buck with a bow this year

[SteveNY]

I believe you can shoot a buck with a bow during archery season, and another with a bow during gun season. As long as you have the proper tags.

Touchy subject.  I know of some friends whose family members (who don't hunt) get licensed and the person who gets the additional deer tag it on their tag.  It's only 1 buck with the bow and one with the gun and as many DMP's (doe permits) you have gun or bow.

I believe on Long Island you can shoot 2 with the bow during bow season.

Ahhh. He shot the first on last years tag in the early NZ season 9/27-9/30. Some unused tags carry over to the next early season in the NZ but no doe permits.

Oh it has happened before on here, the infamous "my slammer" thread where a guy shot a spike and then later on took a big buck and couldn't help but brag about it. Classic thread. Lol

You can shoot two bucks with this year's southern tier tags, in the southern tier in 2 specific WMU's.

Actually its one during bow/ml season and one during regular season. You can still use a bow during regular season if you wish. You get a third option with northern zone early bow.

Buck tags are not transferable even between spouses.

that don't stop people from doing it unfortunately

[irish_redneck]

Nope I know people who do... in all honesty... I kinda think it should be legal.

As I've said before NY wants a deer dead what does it matter if its me or my wife who shoots it do long as NY gets their tag money.

(My wife does not have a hunter safety course or tags, I hunt my tags and only my tags.)

Or during late season. Or you can shoot one with regular and one in late. One with bow and one with late, if you don't use regular. With a super sportsman, no matter how you slice it you can kill 2 bucks in anyone of the separate 3 seasons. The bow is the only weapon you can use in all 3.

There's people that have legally shot 2 bucks this season already, all in the Southern Tier, legally.

I really hope you have the term "Southern Tier" confused with Westchester county... and not the counties that border northern PA like Steuben, Tioga, etc. There is a HUGE difference. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Tier

There is no way a hunter can legally have killed 2 bucks so far in the Southern Tier.

The only way a hunter in NY could have shot 2 bucks legally so far would be:

 

1 in the Northern zone on last year's tag 9/27-9/30/13 + 1 on this year's tag

OR

 

1 on the archery either sex tag in any WMU + 1 in Westchester or Suffolk County on the regular season tag.

yeah worse idea ever, winner

 

so now everyone should be allowed to kill 4 scrub bucks a year, uh NO

 

and killing bucks don't help reduce deer number, that would be shooting does,

 

if anything we should go to a 1 buck limit not 4

You can use your reg season buck tag in archery only wmus because its always bow season in them so yes you can technically

[phade]

8C is one.

Not in all bow only areas, such as 4j, the regular season tag is not good until regular season opens. I don't know about the other bow only areas as I don't hunt them.

In 8C, you could shoot your bow buck, then shoot a doe and bring back the head to the Avon office and get an either sex tag good for 8C only, and which point you could shoot another buck or a doe. If you shot another doe, you got another tag, it was endless as they didn't have enough hunters in that unit since its pretty much super urban hunting. If you shot the buck on the either sex issued tag, then you were not issued another tag. It allowed 8C hunters to shoot 3 bucks in one year, plus hypothetically a fourth if you had last year's tag to use up north in those early days.

 

I believe it has changed now so the either sex tag component is gone and only antlerless are issued now as of this year.

Yes it's new this year, same in 4J, you can scan a filled out tag and email it in. Easy as can be and fast, I got a new tag in one day through the mail.
