crazyfarmer Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 its a big deal here in Va also.. im presonally not in favor of it but I get to hunt most of the week when others cant. Its never been a law here that you could hunt on Sundays. The biggest hiccup facing those that want it is that we are a dog hunting state also. Church members dont want dogs running though the parking lot and shotguns firing. I know, I know, its ways to prevent that but its only gonna take one idiot to ruin that part for everyone. I wouldnt mind bowhunting only on Sundays, but again its one idiot thats gonna try to sneak a rifle out and ruin that or someone to still hunt off dogs but say they are bowhunting. Its just not enough pro's to get it by in Va. Granted its not alot of cons, but its just no solid reason for it to become a law here. Now if I was a youngin back in my teens I would be all for it. Since ive matured a lil bit, I have a different opinion:) If its passed here, then great though:) Ill glady hunt on sundays. If it isnt passed, then its not the end of the world.

Tink Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 How do the dogs know its Sunday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntcamp Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Why should Sunday be any different than any other day. An idiot is always and idiot, they do not care what day they break the rules. It would suck having to work all week and then have only one day to be in the woods. I thank god that everyday during the week we have open to hunt. Minus the day before opening gun season. Why not take wednesdays away too, they are religious days also and people are at church? i can't imagine the uproar there would be here in WI if they tried to take one day away from us. Dogs are only used for bear and birds here. Not too many churches in the deep woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnf Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 I normally don't hunt on Sunday, but don't think it's the states place to tell me I can't. Dang, New Jersey claiming to take the high road on something, that's like Rock Stars against drugs or Christians against Christ...........just not right.

swampbuckva Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 I am all for it. I work all week like most people and only get to hunt on Sat. Except when I may take a few vacation days!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Legal 7 - days a week here too. Although im in Church on Sunday mornings I can deny someone the right to hunt Sundays. What if a guy works the night shifts and all he can hunt it Sunday?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strut10 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Personally not in favor of its passage, here, in PA. My own choice. If it's passed, then, I guess to each his own. I just see a lot more land getting posted should it go through (that's a fact.....not an opinion). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swohiodave Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I deer hunt here most sundays during the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldblue Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 Pennsylvania needs to get into the 21st century and remove the prohibition for hunting on Sundays. I am retired and can hunt 1 - 6 days a week, but many, many hunters don't have that opportunity when they are working 2 or 3 jobs to make ends meet and only have one day (Sunday) off in a week.

jared264mag Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 I don't even think that anyone in Texas has even considered such a law. I hunt on Sundays from time to time. We do have a few hunters in our Hunting Club that don't but that don't happen all the time anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HunterLuke Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I really wish Virginia would have passed the Sunday hunting, Most of the time school gets in my way and weekends are my main hunting time and wow, Saturday is all I get for enjoying the great sport of hunting unless it's Thanksgiving break or Christmas break. I mean really, You could skip early service at church to go hunting and still have late service and evening service to go. You could also skip the morning hunt and go to church and skip evening service at church to go hunting.(That's how church is around here, early service,late service, then evening service) It's a free choice of what you want to do.
