ny non-resident lic

[gixxer6bb]

Has anyone bought a non res license. I asked a guy @ dicks sporting goods and he wasnt sure if i was supposed to pay the $140 bowhunting and then another $140 big game, or if it was just $140? All I want to do is bowhunt deer. Any info thanks.

My first answer would have been yes but after checking the regulations it seems that the non resident hunters would only need the bow license for bow hunting privliges. see the difference in the regs for resident to non resident

All you need is the bowhunting for $140.00.

I get the supersportsmens every year but I'm pretty sure you need only the archery ($140?)

$140 for archery and $140 for Gun or get the sportsman for $280 I think. Don't forget the $10 DMP.
