EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

Well guys dove season is right around the corner I am ready got a really good spot this year should be good fun I just got to figure out how to load this shot gun

I might actually try n get a few this yr. my land holds a lot of dove bc iv nvr shot at them yet. Everybody says its good. Any special license required or standard license

Yes Mr Charles you have to have a license to hunt dove! Shot gun must have a 3 shell limit (plug) and ur ready!

Place we hog hunt is loaded with them rite now hope they stay around.

    having dove hunted every year for years all I can tell you is that your places will be loaded with dove all year all the way up to august 31st and then on sept 1st opening day there won't be a dove in the sky for miles   lol  .

I know u need a license. Thats why i ask if i had have a special license (bird taxe stamp) or a regular license. Ill look it up when i get back to the hotel

Didn't read it fully my bad!

Any of y'all use those decoys? This will be my first year to dove hunt we got a pile of em

Josh the robo doves work awesome in the early season, they will decoy to one just like ducks do to a spread. Make sure u leave it 25-35 yds out or they will be in your face! Love dove hunting and dove eating lol

Cool I'll have to get one thx

Mojo battery decoys work excellent where I hunt.
No special stamp for doves just a duck stamp u need during duck season so regular hunting license is good.
Judge peel if u run out of birds come to my side of town we have 1000s of acres to hunt on and it's looking good right now.

Heck ya ferris since I don't drink beer any I can't hit nothing but it's fun

Mojo does do a great job

Not shure if im doing it wrong,  but it always seems like alot of work for alittle meat..

That's usually my thoughts too, but  lot of the guys I work with say they r dang good.


Thank you for reading my entire comment instead posting blindly and answering my question

I don't care to eat them but I enjoy dropping there a$$e$ out of the sky

That's what folks say about squirrel too, yet every time I fry a batch up...here comes company! lol. Same thing seems to happen with some dove breasts and a pepper wrapped in bacon. If I could get the meat off everything else as quick as I can pluck a breast off a dove, I wouldn't know what to do with all my free time.

Guy next door to my job was tellin me he was slaughtering them last year using those Mojo decoys. My boss is takin me out to Hondo , Texas for the opening to hunt ¿sun flower felids ?( I think that's what he said ) Im thinkin I might pick up some of those decoys before then and see if they help me any

ChrisH, ya'll will more than likely smoke a pile of em hunting over sunflowers, we go to uvalde every year to hunt em for opening weekend and wear em out over sunflower, milo and millet fields. Always a blast......

I love dove hunting. We hunt hard the first few weeks of season. Each year we have a memorial dove fest to honor my best friend that passed away. We cook around 500-700 dove. A group of us hunt family land around Jonah Texas. Mojo dove work great in some places but not others. Be where the dove want to be and they will come right it it , just like duck hunting.

    ya'll don't forget about them white wing doves . if I'm not mistaken you will need a stamp for them . but I've never hunted much in the area's they are prone to flyby .

works good on mourning dove but not very well on whitewings

U actually get white wings with license just don't remember I think 2. No stamp needed

Just a heads up you do need a migratory bird stamp for dove duck etc. it's 7 bucks and you can harvest mourning,white wing and white tipped dove just no more than 2 white tipped in a daily bag limit.
