2010 Resolution Fall Turkey Season
Whereas: the Fall Turkey Season in Wildlife Management Units end two weeks earlier in 9A, 9C, 9F,8A,8C,8F,8G,8H and 8J than other Wildlife Management Units in the Regions. Causing less recreation time for hunters pursuing their sport or causing them to drive greater distances to hunt wild turkeys.
Whereas: it is strictly a social issue and that has been expressed by a person involved with Small Game and the NYSDEC. Another person working for the department also wrote it will give youths a chance to hunt an hour or two after school close to their home.
Whereas: it would spread turkey hunters out over a greater area and not concentrate their hunting to just the Southern Wildlife Management Units in late season. This would also result in a harvest of birds more evenly taken throughout the Regions rather than the Southern Wildlife Management Units.
Therefore be it resolved: that that NYSCC work with the NYSDEC and bring Wildlife Management Units 9A, 9C, 9F,8C,8F,8G,8H and 8J in line with other Wildlife Management Units in the Regions. To make it more uniform also include 7A to the same date closing as these units which now closes on the same date as these units. This would only consist of a regulation change for dates to coincide with the other Units in the Regions.

NIAGARA NWTF FRONTIER CHAPTER 2010 RESOLUTION
Whereas the Fall Turkey Season in Wildlife Management Units 9A, 9C and 9F end two weeks prior to the end of the fall season in the rest of Region 9.
Whereas Turkey Hunting consistently seems to have the most hunting accidents each year.
Whereas the fall foliage is diminished as the season where's on, making accidents less likely, due to better visibility.
Therefore be it resolved that the NYSCC ask the NYSDEC to move the Fall Turkey Season in these Wildlife Managements to coincide with ending at the same time as the rest of Region 9. Thereby only changing timing of the season in said units to facilitate better visibility for the hunter.
