PA No Sunday Hunting

[GSPHUNTER]

formerly a religous law from i think 1612 or so, this state was started by quakers, who were pretty darn strict about their religion.

It's kept around now by the farm lobby of all things, the farmers have convinced the legislators that sunday hunting is going to be a trespassing problem, so rather than paint the property lines purple and call the cops they've decided to tell any legislator who supports sunday hunting that they're going to lose reelection.

YUP.

Yes if every gun hunter thought that way it would be no different than the hunting pressure but where I've hunted, guys don't spend much time scouting. I scout year round in local gamelands and only see human activity before the rut and immediately before gun season. In your experience, do the deer on the land you hunt respond to heavy pressure the same way every year?

I Did not read all the responses. What ever inspired such a stupid law, was it a religious thing, or just a way to give animals a day of reprieve????

GSPHUNTER:

Yes.

Wait until you encounter a few of the numbnutz who are channeling The Big Guy and who think wild animals are in the market for "a day of rest."

They're real, and they're spectacular.
