Default Dove season, Sept 1.

And I can' t hardly wait, I had a small wheat field that I let mature, then about 2 weeks ago I bush-hogged it down, then last week I ran a disc over it to get rid of the stubble, theres alot of seed on the ground, The birds are coming in really good, I should have some excellent dove shooting when season opens.

do the wheat seeds get buried much when you disk it? i planted a couple of acres of wheat for doves last fall. the wheat grew pretty good, but now it' s full of ragweed and this small stuff that looks like a bunch of small clover leaves growing on long stems.

If you just go over it one time and do it kind of lightly there will be alot of seed they can get to.

This will be my second year hunting, and my first year hunting doves. I shoot trap a lot to get ready for wingshooting, so I hope it helps. Wish me luck! And good luck to you, strut, and all the others!
