Living in southern Maine my whole life I've watched the influx of out of staters and at the same time I've watched the influx of posted signs. IMO I truly believe more land is being bought up by out of staters and posted because it's "theirs". People who have grown up in rural settings and been able to roam the woods freely their entire lives are less likely to pst their land then is a person who moves from an urban area, buys 200 acres and post it because they want the privacy they've never had. I see it every day.

I have no doubt that you're accurately conveying what you're seeing as far as opposition but I'm just not seeing it. I see it as an extra day a week to hunt and possiably a slightly shorter season to keep harvest numbers about the same. I'd gladly cut my season short a week to gain 3-4 days I can hunt over the season. For a person who has a financial reason not to want it I can also understand their perspective.

If it goes through it just means I'll have more choices of where to hunt on Sunday. If not I'll just keep hunting in NH as I have in the past.

My biggest concern for hunting in maine would be the changes in qualifications to be commissioner of the dept of inland fisheries and wildlife. I think sunday huting will have less of an effect in the long run then the change in qualification to run the DIF&W.
