Default Question?

I have a question for everyone. I am curious to know what everyone believes about cemetery hunting? Do you believe in it? Is it a moral or legal issue in your eyes? If you do not believe in it give me your reasons. I appreciate your response.

Tricky question. Do people still visit the cemetary? Personally, I wouldn't if the graves were taken care of. I wouldn't want someone digging around my Granny's grave...

Default Good Question

Very good question. Speaking for myself only...I have hunted many many cemetery locations and I have made many good finds, HOWEVER, I DO NOT HUNT THE MAIN PORTION of the cemetery. The ONLY hunting I do at these sites is around the pathways and outside any fenced in areas. Most States prohibit hunting cemetery property so I would be awful careful as to where I hunted. I enjoy hunting cemetery areas especially if there used to be an old chuch nearby on the property. I DO NOT HUNT AROUND GRAVES....PAPPY

I have never hunted a cemetary,, Im not sure that I wouldn't have any religous,moral or any other objection to it ,, Just never have !!!


to me I guess it would be like anywhere else, courteous,neat, and with a high regard for private property, which in essence is what a grave is, bought and paid for !!

but roadways,sidewalks, and parking areas, belong to the owners of the cemetary, and permission should be sought out before hunting !! whether it is a county, state or private cemetary.
