Default RE: Virginia Hunters please read

I am all for Sunday hunting. Hunting license sales fall every year in Virginia, and I think lack of time is one reason. As hunting becomes more expensive and a bigger hassle (anyone bought a new bow or gun lately, or tried to find a new place to hunt?), we should create more incentives to hunt where we can. As the number of hunters drops and the average age increases, the number of anti-hunters increases and we don't need that.

With all due respect, hoyt3, I don't buy the theory that game needs a day of rest. The no Sunday hunting law is a blue law left over from colonial days, to get people to go to church. If a day of rest for game was a necessity or helped the quality of hunting, every state would ban hunting on one day or another.
