We've had dove season for the last 3 years, I bought a few decoys and a mojo dove, its challenging and good practice.

Happy Birthday! I like to dove hunt before waterfowl season, especially since the doves fly like the blue angels at the end of the season.

I had a good day in illinios on saturday and sunday, me and my buddy limited on geese both mornings and then in the afternoon on saturday we shot 23 doves and on sunday we shot 27 doves in the afternoon. Yes they are hard to hit, i live in Iowa with no dove season and bought a illinois license for the first time ever and just thought i would try it, because my dads friend has a field over there that the geese are hitting like crazy, and a sunflower patch that is just chuck full of doves.
