Sunday Hunting Shot Down Again In North Carolina
May 12, 2009
A bill to remove the ban on hunting on Sunday’s in the state of North Carolina has been sidelined once again. This has been a controversial topic even among the hunting ranks but it still appears the opposition from many church goers seems to be the major obstacle. Unless the bill is resurrected by Thursday it will be 2011 before it has a chance to be considered again.
Republican Sen. Fletcher Hartsell of Cabarrus County said the measure is unlikely to come back before a Thursday deadline, which means it is unlikely to be heard again until 2011.

A plan to allow bow hunting on Sunday, which would not necessarily require a change in current laws just a rule change, has also been sidetracked after passing the public hearings and being passed by the NCWRC. The rules committee received enough letters of opposition (10 or more) to delay and possible have it reviewed by the same state law makers that failed to bring this other bill out of committee. So hang on it looks like this will be a bumpy ride for the next little bit.
