I’m from NY we were a no Sunday hunting state through my childhood. It’s going to ruin Pa as it did NY! Next Pa will issue 2 buck tags and just decimate the mature buck pool! Just give it time I’ve seen it first hand!!!!!Just wondering, what Pennsylvania think of this
I think most of the older hunters love the ritual of a Monday opener and everyone spending the whole week at camp.Coworkers biggest bi*** about the Saturday opening vs Monday was because his friends from out of state would hunt THEIR Saturday opener, then drive here for their deer camp on Sunday morning to hunt the opener on Monday.
It interfered with their deer camp ritual.
He just couldn't understand why I was happy to be able to hunt the opening day.
Told him it's different when you have 35 years with one company and get 5 weeks a year in vacation vs my 6 months there with no vacation.
It wasn't that it changed how they spent the week.I think most of the older hunters love the ritual of a Monday opener and everyone spending the whole week at camp.
I used to enjoy going to hunting camp for the first week but like most people nowadays time is at a premium and there’s not any to spare for some reason.
I went from a job that gave me 4 weeks vacation to one that gives me 2 thinking it wasn’t that big of a deal, I was definitely wrong about that!
We did similar, we had a camp up in Mckean County. We would have Thanksgiving dinner with the family and Friday drive to camp Turkey hunt on Saturday and be looking for a place to be the first day- Monday.I think most of the older hunters love the ritual of a Monday opener and everyone spending the whole week at camp.

Ok can anyone please explain what the benefits to the Monday opener is . You can't use that they way is was . Small business Saturday shopping or Black Friday shopping. Or you have to rush to get to camp on Friday for the opener on Saturday. You can wait till Monday or Sunday to hunt. Now if it is because you want to go to camp and drink beer hang out tell stories for a few days then say it . With the way schools and sports trying to get kids in the woods is hard with the opener this weekend of the holiday it might be there only chance.I would agree to a Monday opener if they would move it till the Monday before Thanksgiving giving us almost 3 weeks of hunting and the holiday to hunt (like Some states do).Sunday hunting for sure and Monday rifle opener, like it used to be.
