South carolina lifts public lands sunday hunting prohibition!

[JimmyD714]

What is it that makes South Carolina so different from, currently 46 states and counting that have NO restrictions on any sort of Sunday hunting, that we cannot have 7 day a week WMA hunting here without all these catastrophic predictions some of you have?

As far as I can tell, the only difference here is that the average working man will have a proper weekend to hunt. Sadly we don't get it for archery deer season, turkeys, or the month of February (figure that one out) but hopefully it will change soon. This is a step in the right direction.

This "hunter numbers are declining" is a load of smelly crap that smells worse than a bloated roadkill doe's butthole. Every single aspect of hunting as gotten more difficult over the years and it all stems from competition increasing. The number of available acres to hunt is declining. Development, leases, city ordinances, etc are all causing this.

Why not spread that competition out? Not everybody is going to hunt Saturday and Sunday on WMA just because we can now. We still have tag limits, we still have families, and we still have other things that might get in the way on one of those days. But a lot of us that had to miss Saturday for one reason or another will now have Sundays. And that's the way it should be.

Edit: Also, the majority of the pressure walks no more than 200 yds from their truck, and that's only if 150 yds of that is along a paved trail. They don't kill much of anything except time.
