if herd numbers are hurting in PA,
maybe the problem is with herd management, and not sunday hunting? since there is no sunday hunting in PA.
cant speak for MD, but hunt PA and NY,
NY with sunday hunting and higher pop 18 mil to PA's 12 mil population,
NY offers similar if not better hunting oppurtunities than PA even with sunday hunting.
also small game hunting i have seen is much healthier in NY than PA,
can flush grouse every 15 minutes in various places in NY,
while in PA lucky if i flush 1 per hour.
