From NY State Conservation Advisory Fund minutes, November 2004:
There are currently 630,000 deer hunters in NYS with an average age of
49. 94% are male, have hunted 22 years and killed 10 deer. NY is
the only
state that doesn't allow kids under 16 to hunt deer.
The number of licenses sold overall was down by 500,000 from 1.5 million
the previous year. The Conservation Fund is projected to be in the red again
in a couple of years.
