This is why you dont ask game law questions on here. If you dont understand the language in the book then call the F&W. To many stupid ass people on here have no idea what they are talking about. This is copied out of the book, if you cant figure it out then call the F&W.

IMPORTANT: Antlered Buck Permits must be purchased by 11:59 p.m. on the following dates: Oct. 26 for Permit Bow; Dec. 2 for Permit Muzzleloader and Dec. 18 for Permit Shotgun seasons, UNLESS you are buying your first zone-specific antlerless permit AND an Antlered Buck Permit at the same time after these dates

Typical NJH everyone has a different interpretation to the game laws. That's why i always respond to the newbies check with F&G for the info. Sorry officer so-n-so on NJH said it was ok. And here's your summons Mr. Hunter.
 
You cannot buy a buck tag for your shotgun permit after the 6 day firearm season. Obviously they want you to hedge your bet that you won;t score during 6 day and want the ability to shoot a buck afterwards. No one would buy the tag in advance if they could wait and see how they make out during 6 day. I did not buy a buck tag with my shotgun permit but did buy one with my M/L permit. I hunt two different zones. Enough is enough. I shot 5 bucks this past year and that's enough.
 
The whole "buck tag" thing for extended bow and firearm seasons is Douche-y to begin with. Just an extra way to grab money from your wallet by F&G. How many ways can they add to make you pay extra?

I completely agree with you Not only do they get you for permit seasons by zone they also hit you up for that stupid buck tag garbage what other states do this ? I paid $170 this year just to hunt as a resident tell me where else they rob you like that !!! Only in New Jersey ughh
 
Ok, which states, how much are they to hunt that long and how many deer can you take? Serious question. For $120 I can bow hunt from Sept-Feb take 3 bucks and as many does as I want. You probably put more $$$ in your gas tank in a month not hunting!
