New Hampshire - The eagerly awaited bear hunting season in the Granite State is set to kick off on Friday, September 1, and this year, hunters will find novel methods to register their harvests. A significant change for 2023 involves the introduction of nine participating registration stations where bears can be registered. Traditionally, hunters have registered their bear harvests through Conservation Officers (COs), and this option remains available. Additionally, New Hampshire Fish and Game Regional Offices with biological staff can also assist with registration. However, hunters should call ahead to ensure that the appropriate personnel are available. It is crucial that all harvested bears be registered in person at a designated bear registration station, by Fish and Game Conservation Officers (COs), or regional biological staff within 24 hours. For the convenience of hunters, check station registration is now an option. Hunters can choose from the following check stations and are advised to verify the hours of operation with their chosen location: Morse Sporting Goods, Hillsboro: 603-464-3444 Wildlife Sport Outfitters, Manchester: 603-625-9958 The Tackle Shack, Newbury: 603-763-5508 The Barn Store of New England, Salisbury: 603-648-2888 John’s Archery Shop, Northumberland: 603-636-6140 L.L. Cote, Errol: 800-287-7700 Lucky 7 Farm, Washington: 603-933-3774 Trader John’s Gun Shop, Winchester: 603-239-4032 Brookline Cutting Barn, Brookline: 603-316-7957 Hunters looking to register with a CO can dial 603-271-3361. After providing contact information, a CO from the respective area will initiate the registration process directly. For those preferring to register at a Fish and Game Regional Office, harvests can be brought in from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. However, hunters should be aware that biological staff might be in the field, so confirming staff availability by contacting the chosen office in advance is recommended. Hunters are now allowed to skin and quarter their harvested bears before registration, presenting the required parts including head, hide, and reproductive organs to registration stations or Department staff. Timely handling of bear meat is of paramount importance—once a bear is taken down, proper dressing of the trophy and meat should be conducted immediately. The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department encourages bear hunters to take full advantage of the state's natural resources, woods, and weather this fall. Detailed information about the 2023 black bear seasons is available on the official website www.huntnh.com/hunting/bear. Adult hunters aged 16 and above must possess a valid Regular NH Hunting, Combination, or Archery License along with a Bear License and valid tag to participate in black bear hunting. Youth hunters under the age of 16 need a Bear License and valid tag, without requiring a Regular NH Hunting, Combination, or Archery License. Prospective bear hunters without Hunter Education can consider the one-time Apprentice Hunting License, which enables those aged 16 and above to experience hunting under the guidance of an experienced hunter aged 18 or older without the prerequisite of completing Hunter Education. For more information, visit www.huntnh.com/hunting/apprentice.html or call 603-271-3422.
