It doesnt have anything to do with the houndsmen. I have some friends that live in West Virginia, they also own property in north Idaho. They spend Idaho bear season at there Idaho home, when I am up there I hunt with these guys, they dont hunt on sundays either. Idaho you CAN hunt sundays but they dont, it is because of religious beliefs not because any law, the are from West Virginia and are very religious, that is the way they are.

If you look into it most of the states in the bible belt dont allow hunting, its a religion thing!
