RE: Virginia Sunday hunting..... (again)
Original: AppalachianTracker I like the Sunday off...It gives my feet and the deer time to rest. Virginia has faced this issue many times and it hasn't passed. On the other hand West Virginia has hunted on Sundays in past seasons, so there is precedent. My preference is an earlier bow season like NC, say the 15th...instead of a Sunday of hunting. I understand your point butdeer hunting is one way that I personally relax. It can be hardwork at times but I do not consider it that way. Even if Sunday hunting were legal, you still have the option to go or stay home. I'm like coolbrze0, I have an excellent work schedule so I am able to hunt during the week and every other weekend.I guess for me it is just the desire to have the option of hunting on Sundayslike the majortiy of the country. |

No need to worry though the bills that were proposed in the house werr killed in committee, so I guess you got your wish. |

This is an email I got from Delegate Plum this morning "Mr. Patrick, House Bils 632 and 711 were heard in subcommittee yesterday evening. Unfortunately, the subcommittee voted to recommend to the full committee that these bills not be passed. I was one of 2 members of the subcommittee who voted against killing the bills, as I personally believe there would be nothing wrong with being able to hunt on Sudnays. It is highly unlikely that the committee will report these bills out. Just wanted you to know the subcommittee's action last night. Delegate Ken Plum 36th House District" |
RE: Virginia Sunday hunting..... (again)
I don't buy the argument that deer need a day of rest either. I would be suprised if VA passed Sunday hunting in the next 10 years....been talked about and shot down for too many years now.

Your right Butch, I guess my wife is right about my selective memory. The interview I read was by Ken Perrotte in the Free-Lance Star.[/align][/align]http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2005/092005/09292005/132737[/align][/align]About the same questions and answers. I would like to see it changed, I work on Sat. mornings. Did you have any luck this season?[/align]

ORIGINAL: rick64 Did you have any luck this season? [/align] Regarding Sunday hunting, at least I can hunt up in upstate New York on my sister/brother-in-law's 125 acre farm anytime I want (Sunday's included!). All it'll cost me is a $110 non-resident license. |
RE: Virginia Sunday hunting..... (again)
Folks,
There is a correction from Delegate Plums office: Mr. Patrick, I was in error. The other "aye" vote was from Delegate Eisenberg of Arlington. Barbara Shearer Legislative Assistant to Del. Ken Plum Just wanted to let you know. Enjoy the end of Duck and Goose season. I know I willl. |
RE: Virginia Sunday hunting..... (again)
Guys,
I just sent a huge email to all the senators involved with SB387. Plus I have a phone call into Senator Stolle's office and also contacted my local senator, Senator Stosch here in Richmond. If SB387 is the last effort we have for Sunday hunting, then I'm going all out on this one.... The year is 2006 people.... not 1886!!!! Can we puh-leeze get with the times!!! [:@] |
