Ready for Doves!
« on: August 23, 2014, 07:56:32 PM »
With it only a few days away I am getting excited to get out and get some dove hunting in.  Also looking forward to some bacon wrapped dove breast!   :drool:

I was over last weekend and it looks like it should be a good opener.  Lots of birds flying so I am very optimistic for good hunting.

Probably the best dove hunting story I ever read was in Outdoor Life about 40 years ago.  It was all about hunting down around Sunnyside and the Yak valley. 

 :tup:

Good hunting!  Share some photos with NORTHWEST SPORTSMAN magazine.

Some of us might have a chance to bag some collard doves too!

Let me know how you guys did.  We went out this morning around Moxee and it's the worst I've seen it.  Four hunters and we only took three birds combined.   Saw maybe 15 total all morning.

Forgive me, but the dove limit is 10 per person…40 birds over the 7 person limit?

If they included collared doves in their limit they are perfectly legal.
