An Act authorizing deer hunting on Sunday
This bill proposes to amend Massachusetts law to allow deer hunting on Sundays during the designated open deer hunting season. Currently, hunting regulations generally prohibit taking game on Sundays, but this legislation would create a specific exception for deer. The change would directly affect hunters and wildlife managers by modifying the days on which deer may be legally pursued.
