Download the current regulation guide off the DEC site and read it cover to cover. makes sense to do every year. will answer about anything you need to know before you go afield.

Good point!  I like to reread it every year just to see if anything changed.

Yeah, the little devils like to slip a few new items in there each year, and there are always things that get read but still fly completely over your head ... lol. Also a law degree wouldn't hurt, and then you have to learn how to interpret some of the more vague and ambiguous laws in the many ways that a J.P. or Encon officer might decide to interpret them.

It pays to read through even if you have hunted for years. Last year I made a boo boo during the youth hunt. I even knew it the year before, but it completely slipped my mind until a few on here reminded me. So do a read thru.
