Jerry, I hope your next post does not include "Doves Between Ice Storms," as I saw where one might be headed your way.
Unfortunately, Missouri does not have a split season, and here in the northern part of the state our season effectively ends after about the first several days, even though we get the full federal-allotted time period. We find dove in December in fair numbers while quail hunting, and I sure wish we could add a dove or two to the bag, but alas, our season ends in November. I guess the good news is that I'd then be looking for a tight-choked, long-barreled Parker to use to shoot them.
Enjoy your hunts...and that fine gun!
