Hunters and trappers of any age can now commemorate their harvest with a species – specific sticker and a letter from DEC. Hunter Achievement Awards recognize hunters and trappers who harvest any of the 24 eligible game species and submit a picture on our entry form. Be sure to check out entry rules before entering your harvest. Entries must be submitted within 30 days of the season closing.
Deer Hunters: If you harvest a deer this season:
• Report your harvest
• Snap a photo
• Submit the Hunter Achievement Awards entry form to get your sticker, here: https://dec.ny.gov/things-to-do/hunting/new-york-hunter-achievement-awards
Good luck to all New York hunters and trappers this season.
