Limit of doves
 
Went out this evening and killed my limit of doves. I had 1 shell left out of a box of shells. I sure am a little rusty on the wing shooting that's for sure.

You shot your limit with 24 shells? That doesn't sound very rusty to me, I'd say that's a pretty damn good day in the field!!

I guess maybe it's b/c when I was younger I was a better shot.lol I missed some birds I felt like I should have killed.

Wow, they are tiny compared to our wood pigeon. Do you eat them? I couldn't imagine you would get alot of meat on those little doves.

But contrats on your kills.

No there isn't much to eat on them but they sure are good.

I'll second that! I went dove hunting by myself on a power line that runs through my property... I missed every single bird... but if you ask me its the chokes fault! :D;)

I thought I was doing pretty well last Saturday. I had four doves with 12 shots. I had about 6 boxes of shells, and figured that would last me through the season (one box a day for four or five saturdays). At the end of the day, I had 15 birds, and nearly 100 shots. Needless to say, I suck. I just went and got 8 more boxes of shells this week. I HOPE that lasts me through the season.

Good for me is 90 lol

Wood pigeons/dove are abundant here. Most days you'll get 120 in a few hours. Hunters paradise here. :D
