Published: , in Outdoor News
Crossbow enthusiasts in New York have gotten their wish. On Tuesday, Aug. 26, Gov. Kathy Hochul signed bill S6360/A8330A into law, which allows the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to permit the use of crossbows for the taking of big game in any area long bows are permitted.
The law, which after passing both houses in June was delivered to Hochul on Friday, Aug. 22, requires crossbow hunters to take a bowhunter education course and purchase an archery hunting privilege.
