bigbuckkilla89 Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Me an my buddy went out dove huntin on saturday to a field we've killed quite a few out of this year and they have pretty well stopped flyin in there. We left early cuzz we wasnt seein many doves I had killed 2 and he hadnt killed any. We decided to go ride around and look for deer and we were driving past a little briar thicket with a bunch of little trees and we saw about 50 doves come in and light in the trees. We decided to park and get out and hunt this little open area between the thicket and the woods and in about 30 minutes we had both killed our limit i killed 13 and my buddy killed 15 we saw about 500 doves light in.in just like 30 minutesand we could hear doves all out through the thicket when we first got out so there was already a bunch there. I think were gonna go back there this evening so ill post again and let everyone know how we did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Cool. Was that on public land? Sounds like you hit the mother lode. Doves around here are pretty scattered. A few birds here and there, but no big groups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbuckkilla89 Posted September 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 It's actually not public land one of my good friends uncle's own the thicket and the little grassy open area where we were set up and I have permission to hunt on his land. Also all the doves I've been seein have been scattered to but we got lucky and found a spot where they were goin to roost. Me and my buddy are suppose to hunt there this evening but who knows they may not even be there by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardwood_HD Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 sounds like a lot of fun, i need a place like that.. birds around here or at least where i hunt are just gone.. but thats public land and it gets a lot of hunting pressure, i been seeing more around my house on the powerlines then i see in the dove fields.

gitcha_some Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Sorry to hear that everyone season isnt that hot, weve been tearing them up on a cut silage field. Me and my uncle have been trying a little different approach, we made dove sillhouettes and have been getting them to decoy real nice with the aid of a mojo. If anyone hasnt tried shooting decoying doves give it a shot, its like shooting at teal on speed but theyre even smaller. They usually wont actually land, but just speed right through on the deck, it makes for some really challenging shooting and its deifnantly a great workout for duck and goose season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most of the residents migrated. We use the mojo, we have 4 of them, and it sure is fun to watch the doves react to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardwood_HD Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 yea it was public.. i gave up on them a while ago, you cant expect much on public land after the second day.. i could have got my limit opening day but my gun broke and imdefinatly not much of a wingshooter.. i did find a load of doves last weekend on some private land and took some shots but no luck.. i wont hunt it anymore because people deer hunt it and i dont wanna make anyone mad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
