WHAT HUNTING DOES FOR ME AND EXTRA TIME CAN MEAN TO OTHERS

Pennsylvania Senate Bill 607 seeks to allow more days for hunting that could help organizations like Hunts for Healing and Pennsylvania Outdoor Veterans.  These are excellent organizations that do a great deal for veterans.  It would not only get veterans another therapeutic day in the field but also with helping these organizations have more days available for funding to be allocated towards hunting trips for veterans.

I recently had an opportunity to chat with the founder of Pennsylvania Outdoor Veterans, Ryan Bowman.  While his organization remains neutral on the issue of Sunday hunting, he did say an extra day of hunting would be extremely beneficial for the veterans he serves.  Not only to get veterans another therapeutic day in the field but also with helping organizational funding by having more days available for funding to be allocated towards.

  1. Love this, well written. That exrra day can dp so much for people like me. I own a business and taking of to hunt is not only expensive but a risk. Something goes wrong at the shop there is nothing i can do from the woods. Siple mistake by other can cost rens of thousands. Yet, i take the risk because i love to hint. I shouldn't have to.
