Something I wish I had done. Too late now. Lost track of how many deer I've taken.

Getting mine out for the season and read the enclosed stat sheet. There were  over 3800 bow hunters that reported for 2019.

According to the report hunters  logged an average of 12.2 days afield and an average of 3.7 hrs. per day.   What I found interesting is there were only 96 participants from Suffolk & Westchester zones,  206 from the Northern zone, with the remaining 3,502 being from the Southern zone.

92% of the data they are "collecting" is from the southern zone

I’ve done it a few years . When they receive this years one, they may think I’ve gone blind .

This is my 3rd or 4th year filling them out (6th year bow hunting).  I enjoy sending DEC the info.  I wish that it were tied into their licensing software, or at least available in web format on their website.  They'd be able to analyze the data so much quicker, and it would also enable the users to add multiple areas a day, as well as more than four hunting areas.  They'd need the state funding to put that together, though...

I added up my totals on my bow hunters log 2020.    
                                                     
22 - days hunted

98 - hours hunted

28 - bucks seen

16 - does seen

19 - fawns seen

3 - unknown deer 

Pretty sure I’m done till the regular season, but it was an enjoyable bow/crossbow season.

If you turned one in last year will they automatically send one this year?

I can’t say 100% , but I’ve automatically got them each year .

[mattypotpie8S]

Thanks!

[dbHunterNY]

They should come automatically. Kind of weird. I actually get two in mail. I've sent them both in together. X'd one completely out. Sent a letter with them. Didnt matter still got them both. Now I just fill them both out because I'm not sure what one has the longer record. I'm going on year 6 or 7 maybe.
