Default RE: Sunday hunting in Maine

To say someone should find a career that basically allows a person time to hunt through the week is ridiculous. I love to hunt, but I have to put food on my table and pay the bills too. I guess I could work in a convenience store at night for $8 an hour so I could hunt every day, but how fair is that to my family when I can be making $30 an hour working a "normal" job during a "normal" shift. My schedule does allow me every other friday off which I spend afield every time it coincides with an open season....BUT....there is no way Sunday hunting should be banned anywhere. There is no valid reason for it....period. It's nothing but antiquated blue laws that should be overturned.

I grew up in VA....which is one of the few remaining backwards a$$ states that still doesn't allow hunting on Sundays (or limits Sunday hunting). After spending three years in Maine not hunting on Sundays, I almost felt like a criminal living in Montana where I could actually get in two days of hunting each weekend if I chose to do so. Although, out there, sometimes you need a day of rest after hauling all the game out of them hills!
