Cost to hunt in NJ
Just spent $72 on a all around ....firearm.,bow, fish....and I live here. Put in the $40 for a pheasant stamp and $27 for each zone ( about 50 total ) and it quite a bit of cash. What do the rest of you guys pay ?

Just like everything else in this state, it's all about money. Been here 9 years and only hunted 1 year because of the cost. But that is soon to change, I will be moving to Delaware at the end of the month, My stay here is over, thank God.

I pay about $200 or so to hunt WV as a non-res. That's for a couple turkeys,2 deer with a bow, and 1 with a gun.
That's not too bad when compared to my home state, Ohio. As a resident here, I pay $20 for a license, $20 each for my 2 or 3 deer tags, and $20 each for my 2 turkey tags. That's $100-$120 as a resident.
