I went on my 10th hunt in this first season today. I
have been fortunate to kill the limit on 9 of them
and killed 12 on a morning shoot a few weeks ago.

The crazy thing is that my group of friends and I
all still have doves.

I’ve been doing this a long time and it might be
the best first split that I can remember

I guess these are the good old days

Here’s a pic from last Sunday

Haven't been yet.....nobody I know here in East Central Alabama nor myself ever had more than a handful using a field. Hardly ever see any on the power lines either. More were around in the summer than when season came in. I see MORE on the power lines out Fort Morgan road....tempted to do a driveby with a .410!!

BTW, what county are you hunting in?

Good deal on the dove hunting. Last year was rough.

Sounds like you have had a great season! I think I got limits on 5 of 7 hunts last year, and this year I haven't gotten more than 8 on a hunt . We haven't had enough birds to shoot most weeks.


All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

Last year was much like the OP's for us. This year has been thinner. Just sat out the last 2 weeks but noticed birds flying the other day, going to try again this last weekend.

We have a group of 5 friends that all have a field and we rotate.

All but one have sunflowers. The other one has millet

Been looking for land to buy in Marengo County but not much available. Seems the Doves are in the Blackbelt counties...
