Perfectly legal to blast coyotes before legal shooting time for deer.

6:47 off in the distance 3H. Unbelievably quiet and no action. It seems that no one is in the woods.

623 am was first shot way off in distance.

Very few shots heard this morning. The deer I saw so far are looking totally relaxed. With the cold though, it really had them on their feet and moving around.

It's only legal if it's a center fire rifle is less than 22cal when a deer season is open. Before sunrise 

[Bigfoot 327]

The regulation you quote applies to areas where centerfire rifles are not legal during the deer season. Does not apply to most areas of NYS.

I would check again if I were you 

[Bigfoot 327]

I did before I posted! Did you?

What centerline rifle is less than 22 caliber?

Thank you for the insight, why would NYS, limit a coyote hunter to such a small caliber for coyotes?

Its certain counties, not the whole state.

I didnt hear anything saturday a.m. until 7:15 or so, and it was off in the distance to the east, but hunting season has been open since mid october where I am at.

So, in areas where you can't use a rifle to hunt for deer, you'd generally be using a shotgun - and in my reading, that would be a legal implement to shoot a coyote in the dark, even during deer season. So, incidental encounters will generally be legal to shoot with whatever gun you're using to hunt deer, almost anywhere in NY. Without doubt, if rifles are legal where you hunt, coyotes are legal targets day and night.

First shot 6:36 on Saturday, 6:26 on Sunday, in region 8A.
