Just in case it happens to someone on this forum....

My father is the landowner for the property we hunt. He applied for the super sportsman liscence, plus used his option to apply for a landowners permit, for doe. He was denied.

This is kind of unheard of for NY, as a landowner (of 50 acres or more) usually gets a prefference point for doe permit applications. He was surprised he was denied, and asked the clerk about it. She was surprised too, and had said that it had happened to someone else as well, and that she would call Albany about it. I cannot vouch for exactly what was said, but the general theme was that the landowner status portion of the liscencing system was not working, they sent him a permit in the mail.

The point of the post is...... if you are a landowner, and were denied your application for a doe permit, ask about it, you'll likely get it.
