Ugh!!! I just found out that I will not be able to hunt opening day in MA. Some folks say that the opener is not so critical anymore. The fact that there are less hunters statewide, and that the remaining ones are more spread out because of the easterly expansion of the herd. What do you guys think?? Are you seeing less pressure out there??? Do you beleive that the opening day is not so critical anymore?

I think the first saturday is more important. There will be more hunters out that day than on opening day
