    I'd encourage each of you to contact your legislator and ask them to grant this regulation to the PGC.   Legislation has no business managing wildlife.

    So, is this the legislators trying to make game laws? Are they trying to make Sunday hunting legal, thus overriding the PGC?
     
    I'm all for Sunday hunting, even for crossbow shortcutters, but am not following what is really going on right now with everything. It is fishing season!
