Guys, I shoot doves as much as possible. Our season here in N.C. came in Thanksgiving day as well. I have two fields I am scouting, a freshly cut corn field and a freshly cut soybean field. Do doves like soybeans?

Yes, doves eat soybeans. They can't peck open the hull, but there is usually enough spillage from the opened hulls from the harvesting for them to feed. Gil

Stan, those are some fine pictures right there. A Long Range Puffer Fox and a wonderful grandson. Life is good, indeed.

Doves especially seem to take to a bean field when it snows. It doesn't snow here much, but I have seen them take to the soybeans almost every time it does.

A few photos from yesterday's pheasant hunt with some friends.

This was a couple days ago, on a break from hunting public land near Wagner, SD. Two year old Piper is turning into a real nice little hunting dog, just plain fun and almost effortless to hunt over. The gun's an RBL 16 choked SK/M, my primary pheasant gun the past several years.

Hey all, went out today with Wade Burns and my son Will. It was a great day weather wise, low winds, sunny and 50. Everything melting and the back roads sloppy and slick. Hunting wise, terrible. Saw few birds and I was lucky and got the only bird today. Worked some prime areas, but nothing, oh well, just one of those days I guess. Even with the crappy bird numbers the hunt was a golly good time. Wade sure does make it fun! Comical as always, good one liners all the time! Anyway, on to the pics:

Fun day for me and Will!

Best!

Had a great late season dove shoot yesterday. About 50 people were there and the birds numbers were excellent. Got 12... Just 3 shy of my 15 bird limit. Probably would have limited out were it not for my Beretta malfunctioning. My top barrel wouldn't fire so I basically had a single shot the entire hunt.

Here is e bag with my prized retriever.

I have been shooting a 20 gauge clunker of a Zabala the last few weeks.

This past October in Winter Township WI. Turbo with grouse at his feet and my 1934 Francotte. I shot the gun at a couple of vintage shoots this summer but this was first time in field. Loved it!
