Big Country:

Stay with the subject. I am neither impressed nor intimidated.

Additionally, I wonder if the NY game code regarding when you must legally claim a deer kill applies throughout the state regardless of special areas or special hunts?

NY GAME CODE REGARDING WHEN YOU MUST FILL OUT THE " CARCASS TAG."

New York laws require successful deer, bear, and turkey hunters to fill out the carcass tag immediately upon bagging AN animal.

Such game codes are common in most states. Most states require that each kill is tagged or the tag information is filled out before shooting another game animal. The intention is to prohibit " culling" and to make culling unlawful.
