In Maine, and in other hunting states, Thanksgiving day and the Friday and Saturday afterward are big deer hunting days as these are the last days of the regular season. Then it is bow hunting and muzzle loaders.
I am a military veteran, former cop, own three guns, hunter (not avid, but a few outings a year - lots of sightings, never got a deer), occasional target shooter, and am a strong advocate of reasonable gun control legislation including universal background checks, closing the gun show loophole, assault weapons bans, and would even support universal registrations.
If you like to hunt, it is really about being out in the woods. It is nice to walk the woods and fields in the fresh air and see all manner of wildlife. We occasionally see such wildlife as bald eagles, turkeys, partridges, foxes, coyotes, bears, etc. I go with friends and family members.
I have to say, I love deer meat and moose meat. Great stuff.
Any other hunters, sport shooters, or just outdoor sports people in general out there? There are many great outdoor sports areas all over the nation. Maine is absolutely great for hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, etc.
