kyle31490 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Hi everyone. I live in Bradford, Pa near the NY border. I have never hunted NY before, although the border is only about 10 mins from my house. A friend has invited me to hunt Catt county with him, near the Limestone area for deer. The price reduction for non resident licenses has inspired me enough to give it a try. I have read the regulations and most are similar to PA. I'm not too sure of the wmu borders yet, but I'll be somewhere around the border of 9s and 9t. If a better map exist of the wmu borders, I'd be very grateful for a link! I see I am too late for a DMP doe tag, but I also see they can be transferred in NY. If anyone wanted to trade bulk ammo or something related for a 9s or 9t I'd be interested, just pm me. I am a long time member on archery talk and huntingpa under the same screen name for any that know me. I look forward to the great opportunities NY has to offer. I also look forward to becoming a part of this forum and learning a new state. Thanks all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoneam2006 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) Lol...i live in olean good luck this year....here is link click on towns and boundaries in the first paragraph....by the way 9s is Alleghany state park only so unless you are gonna hunt state park I wouldn't look for that tag....and tags down here are very very hard to get without preference points.....good luck this season Edited November 9, 2014 by stoneam2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyle31490 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 Nice to see a local! I have considered hunting the park, but likely won't unless I get a 9s tag which is very unlikely. I'm just really looking forward to being allowed to hunt on Sundays! I work throughout Catt, Allegany, and Steuben counties a lot so know a couple spots nearby. Very familiar with Olean obviously.

kyle31490 Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 Yeah I saw that stuff too. The no bear thing is kind of a deal breaker for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoneam2006 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Yea actually can't shoot a yote if it walks by either I guess....can't small game hunt while big game season there...and the deer mostly hang out in the no hunting areas....they have some rules that don't make much sence but it's decent hunting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyle31490 Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 I've been seeing bucks cruising midday throughout my travels last week in that area. Saw 2 bucks sparring just north of sprauges on rt 305 the other day. About the coyote thing, is that just in the park or all of nys? In pa we have no closed season for em.
