Doves
 

Wild Skys and Jeff K, Many thank you's. Those are beautiful. Just what I wanted. Thanks again. Cheers, Tom

Still getting good reports from Southern Illinois. I've got Grandpa's 20 gauge oiled up and ready to go. Dad and I are trying out fancy new dove chairs, after 20 years we got tired of perching on our same old 5 gallon buckets and decided to go for comfort.

Destry wish you and your Dad good hunting, wish I could still hunt with my Dad....

post us some pictures of those new dove chairs....im about tierd of setting on my bucket too.... i checked my dove field this morning was not the first dove crow or even a twitty bird in site...things looking bad on my dove field.. hot weather may be the reason still in the upper 90 s here... charlie

Doves in north Georgia look pretty good so far. Of course, if someone down the road turns their field the day before opening day or even that morning we may see a lot less in our field. The season typically opens the Saturday before Labor Day and it is a BIG event in this part of the country. I generally get real excited about going but this year it is even more exciting since 3 of my 4 grandsons will be shooting with me and/or in the same field. It is tough to do right now with football, Lacrosse, and even travel baseball practice underway but we need to get more youngsters and kids in the fields and woods if there is any hope of promoting hunting and sportsmanship. Sorry folks just felt like sermonizing!!!

Charlie,

We stopped at a country store last time I was home and they had a pair of them sitting on the porch. They weren't cheap, we stood around kicking the tires for quite awhile before we finally decided we'd better pick them up. Then Dad trumped my ace by paying for both before I had a chance to do the same. I'll get some pics while I'm down there and post when I get a chance.
