Everyone keep watch starting this weekend.
The Youth Bow Deer Hunt is this Saturday, September 23, a week before the statewide opening September 30. The "antlerless deer first" requirement is waived for youth hunters that day as it is during the entire early season period. The Antler Point Restriction requirement is also waived in zones where it normally applies. The Youth Firearm Deer Hunt is November 18. The NJDEP Division of Fish and Wildlife reminds parents, grandparents and mentors that the bow hunt is just one of the special opportunities available through the Take a Kid Hunting Program. These days provide a quality hunting experience for properly licensed youth hunters by increasing their opportunity for harvesting game in a setting which encourages responsible and safe hunting practices with a supportive atmosphere.
