Default RE: Woody hunting

Out east of Denver they have large flocks of pigeons that feed in the wheat fields. I used to live in Phx and considered Pigeons vermin, like rats. After a couple of seasons on Dove huntingout there I brought a pigeon down to see what it tasted like. If figured if they are living in flocks, staying out of the city and eating grain then they couldn't be bad. Anyway it tasked slightly better than dove and had a lot more meat. Pigeon is open season here, year round. If I get a chance to talk my way on to a farm again, I'd be happy to land some.

Rem'girl, by the way when you say it tastes like hare, I think of Jack Rabbit, which is one of the only hare's we have. Not many people will touch them here. It's funny how people perceptions differ. I wouldn't touch a hare (jack rabbit) but I'll down and eat what you call a ferral pigeon.
