Sometimes it's just so hard to............get it right!:D

On Sunday hunting, I'm all for it but I think it is a political smoke screen by Rep. Ed Staback.
IMO he is holding the PGC hostage over a license fee increase and throwing out the bone of Sunday hunting to make it look like he is actually trying to do something for PGC-hunters.
The votes aren't there to get it passed and he knows that, so it is a safe, no-pass, initiative.
My list of priorites would be financial stability and then Sunday hunting.

In other action, the Board proposed increasing the fees for DMAP permits from $6 for residents and $26 for nonresidents to $10 for residents and $35 for nonresidents.
No problem. I'll pay!:D

Now if we could just get them to go back to the old doe season in northern PA and leave it as is in areas where deer overpopulation is a problem I think things could be really good.

Maybe the two are really one and the same.

I agree with livbucks, it could help with finances with increased license sales. I think more guys would buy licenses if they had Sunday to hunt.

I agree also. Sunday hunting would help bring financial stability.

Go to being a shotgun state...not that I am against rifle hunting... statistically shotgun states hold higher buck numbers and better (older) herd numbers. You have to agree that alot more bucks will get a chance to grow...more bucks, more draw, more revenue, better PGC finances would equal better management. From what i get from people that "used" to hunt PA is the draw is gone...

Okay everyone attack at once... but before you do...Yes I own Rifles, Yes I hunt with them, okay attack!

I'd like to see the price of a doe tag go up to $10 or $15 a tag.

I agree that going to shotguns is likely to help based on the experience of other states but it would probably be a very tough sell in PA.
