BOWHUNTING NEWS

For those of you who are into the hunting side of things be aware now that the NSW Game hunting licence has come into effect.
What this basically means is that if you wish to hunt deer on private land you will now require a NSW Game Hunting Licence. This is currently called a G-Licence.

The implementation of the NSW Game Hunting Licencing system is a staged process.

STAGE 1 has begun with the issuing of G-Licences.

STAGE 2 will commence in the next 6 to 12 months with the issuing of R-Licences to member of approved hunting clubs/organizations. A NSW Game Hunting Licence(Restricted), or R-Licence, will enable Qualified persons to hunt game species such as deer, as well as feral animals, on Declared public land in NSW.

Game Licences will be available through the club. Cost is $60.00 per year. For more information contact Stephen Jaeger.

With the introduction of this Licence any hunter that wishes to claim deer that is taken in NSW will now have to quote a game licence number as well.

If you wish to hunt feral pigs, goats, rabbits, foxes etc on private land you will not need a game licence.

I believe this will not have too much effect on the bowhunters within the branch because there are not too many of them.
With that in mind visitors from other states that wish to hunt deer in NSW will also have to have a Licence.
