Default RE: Sunday Hunting ban

Shadow, I feel for you and everyone that has to put up with no Sunday hunting. Ohio changed their law in 1998 on a limited/trial basis. The law was expanded and became permanent in 2002. One of the provisions that was added to the bill to allow Sunday hunting was stiffer penalties for tresspassing.Check out this link thathas a good history of how the law changed in Ohio and the lack of public outcry which was feared, but never came to pass. (see page 43) There is stuff about other states too.

I would encourage you to keep contacting your legislators and whomever oversees the hunting laws in your state. There have been quite a few states that have changed the law in the not too distant past and I'm sure more will surely follow with enough encouragement (well, except for my neighboring state of Pennsylvania ).

Good luck to you!

PS I just found this forum and I love it!
