I hitchiked across country when I was 16 and spent the weekend in West Virginia. Very beautiful state. I grew up in upstate western ny and the hunting there was very hunter friendly. No zones, doe tags good season, all the extended hunts.........the good ole days.
NY still has a very liberal season:
With a Sportman's License you get...
Archery/ML tag (either sex)
Archery/ML tag (antlerless)
Regular season buck tag (can use your ML during regular (gun) season
Possible antlerless tag (depending on zone/preference points/luck)
On Long Island if you shoot a doe and check it in at the station they will give you an either/or tag. You can do this over and over during the month of January.
Then, of course, there are two fall turkey tags, two spring turkey tags, bear tags, small game license and fishing license.
About $65 for a resident.
