I wasn't allowed to hunt on Sundays growing up. The only exception was deer hunting, for whatever the reason, just as long as I went to church. As I got older, I slipped around and did it, and the folks must have known.
My grandfather did not want us shooting doves. He called them the Lord's bird.

Sure is a detractor for those covering long distances and only having a weekend available. From memory, I think pretty much an eastern deal.
Lots of Blue Laws when I was a kid in Va. A smart car salesman got around it by selling $20,000 cabbages. Buyer got a free car with the purchase.

When I was growing up in PA there never was any Sunday hunting. Recently heard that there are certain (3?) Sundays where hunting is now allowed in PA. Also, dove hunting before noon was not allowed....but I'm not sure if that was a Blue Law thing or for some other reason.
The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me.

There was a time you couldn’t dove hunt until after lunch! Amazingly I remember that when I was hunting with my Dad as a kid. Changed it sometime in the 70's I believe.

I just remember a time living in PA that I hoped I got to work a weekend during hunting season then I had two days off during the week when I could hunt instead of just Saturday had I worked a normal shift.
Kinda sucked for my friends, except the really "religious" types, who only ever got weekends off and worked long days and couldn't even get into the woods for an hour or two.
Old laws from farming days.

Fifty-four years ago I voted to allow hunting on Sunday in Washington state.

Sundays are a great day to teach kids about woodlore, red oaks from white oaks, its a great time to fish and teach kids the greatness of being out of doors, I've never understood the whining, the only thing you couldn't do was kill something, Sundays were like a free for all for us.

I never understood that nonsense. What else do you need permission for back east? Lots of things. One of the reasons I left and never looked back.

Don't have kids and when living in PA I wasn't retired like I am now. Kids can go out with their folks and learn all that stuff while hunting, and they are off school on Sunday too, one of their two days a week, so it made no sense. Also, they might learn about critter innards and how to take care of meat and where it really comes from, even on Sunday. Cutting out a full day of hunting time sucked, just because of some antiquated law. I was more fortunate in that I could hunt right out the back fence of work and could get in an hour or two before dark. Others aren't so lucky. Geno
