Monmouth county Park Permits
 
Went yesterday and picked up my park permit for the monmouth county hunts.......so far 3 days in they have a total of 18 permits issued, and turned away a half dozen people for inadequate information.....

I don't think many people are going to take advantage of this, because of the limited time and deer restrictions being put in place. But for those of us who do go, I think it should be a good time to put some meat in the freezer.

i have a friend in freehold, nj. tell me more bout this hunt and is there a website. i might give it a shot...esp if it is bow only and the hun is the last 2 weeks of oct into nov. i have never hunted NJ, but have been invited to hunt private places. i never have had the time. to many places to hunt and not enough time to hunt them...i guess that is a good thing:)

I went yesterday for my permits also, i must of went right after you because i was number 20.
They just started giving out permits on monday and there is 3 locations where you can get them so i am sure you can add alot more to the 20 so far.
after all this is New Jersey and everything is crowded here.
What i dont understand is that they are not putting a limit on the number of permits they are giving out you could end up at a spot with a ton of other guys.
Good Luck

I went over to the Resevoir yesterday to get mine. The first day they were available, they said they gave out 20. I'll be hunting Shark River Park. It's only about 2 minutes down the road from me. The only thing about Shark River is that there is only 47 acres open there, and I already know of about 5 friends planning to hunt there. So, I have a feeling in that little area, there will be a lot of people. Gun season in these parks are going to be crazy I think. There will be a lot of people in these parks, it's going to be rough. On the other hand, since there will be so many people in all these parks, the state lands and other management areas are going to be a little more free to hunt.

They are giving out permits for every park not just those three, once you get a permit you can hunt all the parks listed that is why you check off what parks that you think you are going to hunt so that they have an idea on how to staff the parks.
And you can bet your a$$ that they all will be packed by the time season comes around.

Without any way to contol the # of hunters in the parks each day & in each park could make for some dicy situations. All who participate in this hunt good luck & be careful.

Could out of state hunters apply for these areas? If yes, could you give me some info on how to.
