I hear what you're saying. In NH it the same way as far as open to hunt as long as it's not posted and we have Sunday hunting. You don't see or hear a long of hunting going on like I'm sure they (ME landowners) think would happen. To bad they couldn't swap a day like make it closed on Monday or Wenseday and open hunting on Sunday
Then the landowner would have that feel safe day. I'm not sure if it's still that way or not but in WV they opened Sunday hunting on private land only. ME should maybe open it on just state owned land and see how it goes. You did say in your post, how do you feel about opening hunting on Sunday?
