    30 degrees beautiful morning. Unfortunately, I no longer have the ability to make it to my stand without jumping deer

    That's quite possibly the dumbest rule ever. What sense does it make?

    Ive been told that it is a leftover from the old ''blue laws''. You'd be surprised at how much of the resistance to changing it comes from other hunters. MD is starting to come around slowly, the county I'm in has 8 Sundays open this year. But PA is still far behind.

    And the 8 that we can hunt are on private land only.

    Good luck guys, I took the day off from the woods. Needed to recharge a little, probably regret it once I go check cams tomorrow, but man was it nice to sleep in. Still laying in bed at the moment with the wife curled up next to
    Me, so it is still a good morning regardless. Be safe, and good luck.

    Perfect November morning here in MI. Hunting over a Tinks power scrape dripper. Trying to redeem myself from my miss last night.

    This annoys me to no end. What difference does it make what land you're hunting on? Stupid.

    I don't understand it either. Maybe we can make some progress in January, since we don't have a horrible gun bill to fight this time around. I plan on talking to Joe Woods and see if he will help introduce a bill to open up Sunday's.

    All I can say is Virginia ought to be glad I don't own a bunch of land myself or I'd be hunting Sundays.

    At least you're calling in something. I haven't been able to grunt/rattle even the small bucks.
