Bad dove hunt

[LPfishnTIM]

thats why I never pay for a guided dove hunt. I guess a few questions to ask is 1. can I see the field I'm hunting? 2. how many people will be hunting this field at the same time I am? 3. how many fields you have available and what is planted in them?

I have hunted with a guy named Jim West in this area for $70/gun and had
great success on several occasions, but he did not have room opening morning. He will tell you when you book a hunt if he has birds, Scott Hickman did not.

Its not often we get all of us together so we didn't mind paying $150/gun for what we thought was going to be a good dove hunt. If this guy would have jumped on the tractor sitting on the side of the field it would have been a lot easier to take. He blamed our lack of success on north winds, baited fields and wet wings from the rain in the area. Wet wings was a first for us.
