Hi.. my name is nathan I’m 32 years old I’m from the  great state of Maine!. Growing up since I can remember I always wanted to be a hunter but unfortunately I had to wait till I was 10 due to the laws at the time. A few years later the day had finally come, it was like Christmas for me my first day of hunting I carried a 410 double barrel shotgun but knowing absolutely nothing about how easy it wouldn’t be I was disappointed thought I was gonna get a big ole buck just that easy I think I was more disappointed that I had to wait 7 more days to do it again since Sundays where not allowed then obviously the school thing and as I sat in class for what seemed like forever it was finally here again this time getting to see my first flags running the opposite way was the coolest thing I’d ever seen since that’s all I wanted to do was hunt. But once again Sunday, school, and 7 more days and not knowing if someone wanted to keep bringing a kid with them I got to hunt 4 days total I was happy to have had a good family help me out but was disappointed once again  now season was over another year comes and goes same thing for at least 6 years when I shot my first deer but this time I was able to hunt more then 4 days but only cause school wasn’t an issue for me anymore but years later I got my ged. Now I’m grown with kids of my own and drive truck and now I feel like I’m back to when I was 10 again only Saturdays to hunt but now. I have taken a couple years to get my gf into the sport and she loves it but it’s hard for me to hunt and let her hunt or hunt together cause we’ll kids! we are parents that’s our duty but if Sunday hunting wasn’t an issue we both could take a day and enjoy it but unfortunately it’s just a dream right now.. from everything thing I’ve read and found the reason we don’t hunt Sundays is due to church and it’s supposed to be a day of rest witch I’m not against at all I’m a Christian myself but that’s not the case now a days everyone is usually out on motorcycle at a cookout, beach, racetrack, party’s, ice fishing, snowmobiling ECT!! You get the picture. Why should hunters be the only one that has a law  saying we can’t do this on Sunday?. I think if we can’t open Sunday in Maine for all year hunting at least open Sundays for the rifle and muzzleloader seasons that’s a total of 6 extra days that the average working person can have and enjoy. 
please sign this if you would like to enjoy a few more days in the woods. Thank you!
