As disclosed by Arch Hunting, given the numerous interpretations and rumors circulated on the correct use of the possibility of hunting 5 days a week during the months of October and November the The Tuscan Regional Authority issued this explanatory note:
Following your specific request, the writer expresses his own technical evaluation based on the experience gained in 25 years of application of the Regional Law 3/1994. Regarding the use of the continuous hunting days in the period 1.10 - 30.11, the following is observed. The art. 1, paragraph 3 of Regional Law 20/2002, reads:
In the period from 1 October to 30 November of each year, without prejudice to the ban on hunting on Tuesdays and Fridays, every hunter is allowed to use the hunting days available to him on a continuous basis for hunting migratory game from stalking. for the entire hunting season.
The standard therefore allows you to take advantage of 5 days of hunting per week from stalking for hunting migratory game. These days will deduct from the accumulation of huntable days available to the hunter in the period from the third Sunday of September to January 31, considering 3 days a week. So a total of approx 60 days in total, from which to scale those used in this period. But this rule also allows, or at least does not prohibit, that a hunter can dedicate the days of Monday, Wednesday and Thursday to wandering hunting, then using Saturdays and Sundays only for hunting the migratory stalking.
Let me explain: the 157 allows you to hunt 3 days a week, with the specification contained in paragraph 6 of art. 18, which reads: Without prejudice to the hunting silence on Tuesdays and Fridays, the regions, having consulted the National Institute for Wildlife and taking into account local customs, may, even by way of derogation from paragraph 5, otherwise regulate the hunting exercise from stalking to migratory wild fauna in the intervening periods between October 1st and November 30th. So the rule allows you to hunt in any form for 3 days, starting on Monday, the first day of the week. The "exceeding" of the 3 days, bringing them to 5, can only take place under certain conditions:
1. in the period 1/10, 30/11.
2. from stalking for migratory game.
3. the days used in this period are in any case deducted from the "package" of days available to each hunter.
4. allowing the overcoming of 3 days, the law allows you to use the other 2 weeklies only and exclusively for hunting
from stalking.
