Planted dove fields in Ky and Oh this year. 200 mile plus total spread, four total spots. I'll even get to shoot dove from MI which has no dove season. It has been so wet many of my best effort have been for naught. Still I have doves. Unless I get blindsided by weather it should be a good early season. I have doves in good numbers in all four fields. I have cleaned my late uncles Crescent .410 for the opener as is my tradition. Then the Model 42's get a couple of days to shine. I am blessed to have one son able to shoot with me for the opener and another to shoot with me for the second day. I am going to take my youngest grandson with me on the third day. Not as a shooter but as my future. Those with grandsons and granddaughters will understand. God bless and good hunting to all.
