Open the season the Saturday after thanksgiving so many more Ohioans can hunt opening day. People visiting the family farm for thanksgiving my be more inclined to hunt being home for the holiday. Many people wouldn't have to request work leave. Some traditions can change if for the better.......I suggest this every year on the year end survey and see others must be thinking the same thing as it was a question for the masses the odnr mentioned. This will get some flack on this forum for the break of tradition, but the squeaky wheel gets the grease... Anyone want to make a better change? A couple more days for traditions to continue to grow maybe get more hunters involved?
