well it's not free you paid for it but it can be a good deal Freddie great gift for the young man!!!!
I'm not sure about buying just a lifetime fishing license though and getting a resident hunting license if you live out of state
Agreed, that would not make sense. Maybe a glitch by the issuing agent. If you buy a lifetime sportsman license then you can hunt in NY for life whether you are still a resident or not. The state "makes out" on people who quit hunting early or never take up the sport. It's a great gift for a young person. Back when I purchased my lifetime sportsman it included free DMP permits, a great deal.
