Im traveling about 1 hour and 15 min to gameland near ny border.If i was hunting with bow or crossbow in archery season ,and at dusk left them in truck,and switched to shotgun and e-caller and went coyote calling for a few hours would i be breaking any laws, or is this okay? Since it is a good distance i would like to hunt coyotes,but not until i understand if it is okay or not.thanks

You would be fine.As long as you are not carrying both bow and the firearm at the same time.Maybe a WCO could step in and confirm this.

I will have a .22, 12ga shot gun and an inline in the truck with me this week. If I want to hunt deer the smoke pole comes out, squirrel the .22 comes out and grouse the 12ga is the choice. They can't say anything if it is in your truck.

The reason i ask is ,you use a red light after dark for hunting yotes ,i dont want a problem for having bow or crossbow in back seat.

nope no problem at all... just dont cast the light FROM your vehicle lol

Seems legal to me no matter what as archery equipment is legal for coyotes and just about any other legal game animal, bird or furbearer in the state
