^^^ Brian, that's what I had remembered, being from NJ at the time, where shotguns were (and are) all we could use, and having hunted just 12 miles south of the NY line in PA, where it was a "big deal" that we could use rifles and not shotguns like our unfortunate neighbors just north and back home. It's why we hunted in PA (Bradford County, just south of Elmira).
Thanks for confirming my memory.
There are shotgun only counties in NY to this day.
Best,
Willie
