I cannot remember when hunting on Sunday was not allowed here in Al. As far as "tagging out" .... the county I hunt has a 3 buck limit/season, one of which must have at least 4 points on one side ... and the doe limit is 2/day from Oct. 15 through Jan. 31. That is almost unheard of in other parts of the US.
The land I hunt is very good habitat and loaded with deer. DNR biologist surveyed where we hunt this off season and recommends we double our doe take. I'd say if I go 10 days, I should be able to put frm 2 to 5 does in the freezer. I usually look for one decent buck/season. Some years I go "buckless", like 2012-13, but keep my freezer filled with doe meat.

What VA did is a good start, but if it isn't applied on a statewide basis on all lands in the Commonwealth then all it does is discriminate against a lot of hunters.

I'll see you all in the woods on Sundays this fall. Finally, put one on the board for Fathers (and Mother) and Grandparents and other family getting to spend one more day in the woods with their kids. This has been a long time coming and whether you agree with it or not, Sunday hunting will further the family bond and hunting. Here's to an extra day in the woods on the weekends with your kids, family and friends. I know I mentioned that more than once in my post, but in the end that's what it's really all about and it deserves an honorable mention. Be safe.
