The New York Department of Environmental Conservation wants sportsmen to know big game season dates well in advance so they can schedule vacation and other plans accordingly. You can calculate future season dates by using the formulas below.

See our Deer and Bear Hunting Seasons page for maps and tables of current regular, bowhunting, and muzzleloading seasons for white-tailed deer and black bear.

See Rifle, Shotgun and Bow Areas for a description of the hunting implements which may be used in the early bear season and regular deer and bear seasons.
