Hi all, well here's the game for this weekend. One Sharpie. So far it's been a poor season (at least for us!). Have not seen many, even in my old Honey Holes. Well, as they say, that's why they call it hunting! I used my 16b Charles Hellis this weekend Best, Greg

Dove shoot on my brother's farm in Middle GA this afternoon to end the first season. Cut Millet burnt over. Several limits on the field, but I shot lousy again and was a couple short. All Mourning Doves. This particular field is near the Upson County Airport where the Atlanta Skydiving Club jumps every weekend. When the doves weren't flying it was fun watching the daredevils. They're so high, you can't see them jump when the plane flies over and the skydivers just materialize when the chutes open...Geo

Mallards parachuting through timber can sometimes give me trouble. How much lead on the skydivers?? Gil

Mike, Georgia has a split season for dove. 2018-2019 dove seasons are Sept. 1-16, Oct. 13-31 and Nov. 22-Jan. 15. Tennessee has a similar season also.

Matt nailed it.

Took my 102 year old friend out this weekend while scouting a new cornfield. Back in the saddle after too long an absence for both of us. Migration is looking very hopeful for this coming weekend.
