How about some dove season opener results from some of you gunners around the country? Are the numbers up in other areas as they seem to be here in my part of Jawja?
Eighteen guns opened the season here yesterday on our field that I planted last spring in sunflowers, corn and brown top millet. I had watched the birds all summer and knew that, barring some unforeseen disaster, the first shoot would be a good'un. It was. Fifteen guns limited at fifteen birds each. Three did not, two of which were young boys new to the dove scene. I was on and off the field in about an hour. I used my stand-by Beretta 687 SPII Sporting with a IC in the bottom barrel and a LM in the top. I could have just as well used a pair of SK's, but it was over so quick I didn't bother to swap.
I hope others' opening day went well, too. Let's hear the reports!
