Planting for dove season

[Smalls]

Yeah, there you go. I don't know of many people that hunt quail though, not around here at least. I guess if you knew you had the population to sustain it, it would be awesome. But hey, dove, quail, its all fun to shoot.

Harrington rd. In holmwood used to hold alot of quail when we dove hunted at the dryers at the end of the road. Used to see and jump coveys all the time.

Do ya'll ever cut the sunflower seeds in the field during the season, or let them just drop seeds naturally

The hunt master allows to fall naturally for the first season. The second season he shreds several rows at a time, windrows then burns. He manages the crop to have fresh cut all season long. With the short 3rd split any sunflower/birdeye/brown top is cut and burned one week before. Last year the brown top that was cut and burned at the beginning of the 2nd came back up for the 3rd split headed with no freeze to kill it.

Guys, I would love to invite all! Would be a great time! If these were my fields that could work, but I'm just a pion in this deal! There are 7 hunters only that hunt those fields. Heck, even the hunt master/farmer has kids and brothers that can't hunt with us. I'm just one heck of a lucky person to have a long time friend that includes me in on the hunts. Sorry

There are other areas I do hunt that doesn't involve the club. On these hunts I can bring a gun or two. Will give you a holler when this comes up. Much rather shoot doves than ducks!

Surprisingly, the third season was un-eventful. Birds in our area by December are smarter than us! Hard to get them to work when you're hunting. They become blind shy, truck shy just plain hard to get them to work into the fields. They all come in one big flock at the same time...first gun shot and they hit the road. I can't figure with all the feed we have and most other fields in the area barren of any feed, why we struggle the 3rd split. Seems we're working over the same birds that been here since Oct. Most of the migration of new doves that come through our area seem to have come and gone by December. Just don't know.
