dont listen to that moron javy..........god its no wonder hunters got a bad name........first if you dont have a permit, contact your local wildlife conservation officer, he will direct you to the next hunter safety course, after you pass the written and shooting exam you will be issued a permit, then and only then can you goto walmart and get your licence, make sure if this is your first time, join a group of hunters that have been in the woods and can guide you..on your first hunt...and yes deer season is in the fall unless you live where i do and it started in sept and lasts till janI want to go hunting how do i get a permit and get started?
How is that the best answer?

take a safety course first
check with your states game department. you may have to do a hunter education program before you can get a license. the regs will tell you the seasons, bag limits ect.
You need to go to Walmart and get a license, Then you drive down the roads outside of town at night with a spotlight on the woods and shoot anything with eyes refecting red back at you.
OH GOD, Jersey....... Escape from there while you can!!!!


I'm shocked they still have any hunting. I worked over there for years paving over NJ with Wawa's, Lowes, and 55+ Housing.


If you can actually find a place (hint up north, del water gap), heres the NJ hunting rules: http://www.state.nj.us/dep/fgw/hntlicfe.鈥?/a>





Like most states you need to pass a hunter education course. And then buy a permit. But the now you have yet another hoop to jump through:

As I said escape now.....
Talk to your local DNR they will give you the right info. you need to start. GOOD LUCK!
