Well I'm not quitting. I'll take what I can get and I'll probably use Sunday to move my TRAPS and such.

Well you can start by contacting the below list of agencies and companies and inform them that you will no longer support them with your money. If they maintain the support of no hunting on Sundays.[:'(]

Thank god, Bud Light isnot on the list!

Dude!?

Look at where all those companies are located...central to southern virginia. All we want up here in Northern Virginia is to be able to hunt on Sundays. They can stay in the dark ages.

Gee I think I know their agenda. They are aligned with Falwell's Moral Majority.

This is off their website.



The Virginia Hunting Dog Alliance has adopted a position opposing hunting on Sunday Hunting for many reasons. It is first and foremost an expression of the vast majority of our
membership, even though all may not subscribe to all of the stated reasons in this paper.

1. The first and foremost reason is our faith. The Fourth Commandment is
reason enough to oppose hunting on Sunday. "Remember the Sabbath day
by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the
seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God.1 We also recognize that
the Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

2. We believe that all can use a day of rest. It is a time to recover and reflect.
You may look for lost dogs or game animals, declared by the law to be
hunting, but the retrieval of lost sheep is consistent with the gospel. We
believe that the hunted also benefit from the day of rest.

3. We believe landowners want a day to rest. To enjoy the quiet of their
property, absent their guests of the rest of the week, no matter how welcome
they may be at other times. Sunday is a day of reflection.

4. We believe that even the most supportive families would benefit from this
positive statement of family values.

5. Other outdoor users appreciate a day to themselves. Without this day, they
may turn against the selfish hunters who demand hunting on Sunday and place
all hunting at risk. Remember all hunting is not done on large private tracts.

6. Virginia has the most generous limits on deer kill of any state in the nation.
No hunter, no matter how they plead otherwise, is so deprived as not to be
able to find an opportunity to hunt during the long seasons. We acknowledge
that some of our number have a limited number of vacation days, but believe
that resulting public opinion would inescapably be negative, and give antihunters
a big hammer to bludgeon us with.

7. Modern wildlife management bases its hunting seasons on range carrying
capacities, species reproductive rates and mortality rates. One significant
factor in determining any hunting season is the number of animals harvested
by hunters. The number of animals harvested by hunters is determined by
man-days a field times the success rate. Most studies have shown that
typically 40% of total man-hours of hunting occur on Saturday. The addition
of Sunday would be certain to require the eventual adjustment of the seasons
for most if not all species that are hunted. This would result in the eventual
shortening of the hunting season.

The Virginia Hunting Dog Alliance acknowledges that hunters are coming to Virginia
from other areas having Sunday hunting. Many areas allow other practices that have also
long been against the law in Virginia such as hunting over bait and hunting big game
animals in small enclosures. We see no reason to support hunting on Sunday in the
Commonwealth of Virginia at this time.

You are mistaken, I was at the vote. A member of the VDGIF board (not offical capacity) was there to speak in favor of Sunday Hunting. VHDA sided with HSUS to oppose Sunday hunting. This from a group that touts being for HUNTERS rights. Apparently they are only for hunters who share their practices'. I think every hunter out there should be contacting their rep's and telling them that they are expected to vote yes next time this issue comes before them. Hokie has stated that the only group that should be blamed is the delegates who voted against it, but what he is not telling you is that the ones who voted against it are the ones listed on their website as recieving campaign contributions from VHDA. Kind of makes a person wonder
