Nope, a different bird entirely. The only sporting related thing I've ever read on them is in Worth Mathewson's book "Best Birds - Upland and Shore".

Below are some whitewings on the right side of the picture. White-tipped doves are bigger and fly around less than whitewings. Whitewings make long distance feeding trips daily, and are are colonial feeders much like passenger pigeons were. This makes them very suitable for a good pass shoot. White-tips almost always have to be walked up and are quite solitary.
