Doves
 
I'm going to get to hunt doves for the first time in my life come September 1. It's something I always wanted to do but, just never got the chance. Mr. John Davis invited to take part in his family's traditional opening day. I think it will be a great setting for a Parker Chronicles story. I don't anticipate any trouble like that caught on video. Enjoy.

Mike, from a long time dove shooter, trust me you will have a blast and what a great introduction to dove shooting with none other than the esteemed John Davis. Have a safe trip.

I'm betting you'll have a terrific time with John and his family! I'm really looking forward to that installment to Parker Chronicles.

Mike, I wish I was going with you, never been on a dove hunt with all the traditions that go with it, maybe someday .................. Have fun.

Mike Franzen 08-18-2017 10:02 AM

Eric, I haven't been on anything like that before either. For me this is one of those dream hunts I have wanted to do for years.

I've also been invited on my first dove hunt on opening day. I don't know how many times I've already packed and repacked my gear in anticipation. Good luck on your hunt!

The best time I ever had hunting dove was on a farm in Nokesville Virginia in a field of sun flower's. J.J.

I'm taking all Parker's of course. A 20 gauge, a 16 gauge hammer gun and a factory barreled 24" 12 gauge. What do you guys use?

Dean Romig 08-18-2017 02:14 PM

Unless you're in full camo and sitting directly beneath the decoys, I'd leave the 24" 12 at home.

I'll be using my Trojan 20 gauge with 26" barrels mainly because it's my only Parker. I'll probably have a Remington 1100 16 gauge in the truck as a back up though.
