South Carolina Sunday Hunting Bill
Scheduled for Hearing on Feb. 15
Contact Members of the Wildlife Subcommittee and Voice Your Support for H. 4614
South Carolina House Bill 4614, legislation that would allow hunting on Sundays on wildlife management areas, has been scheduled for a hearing in the House Wildlife Subcommittee on Tuesday, February 15. State law currently prohibits hunting on public lands on Sunday, allowing only those with private property, or access to private property, the ability to go afield and hunt on Sunday.
Sunday hunting is an excellent vehicle to recruit new hunter-conservationists. Due to the greater prevalence of academic, athletic, and other competing activities that take place on Saturday, it is likely that allowing Sunday hunting will more than double the number of days children can hunt. Additionally, for those adults who work Monday through Friday, or Saturday, this would allow one more chance to go afield and hunt.
Please contact members of the Wildlife Subcommittee and respectfully urge them to support House Bill 4614. Email addresses for the subcommittee members can be found below.
