You can often shoot the same field numerous times if you give it a rest between shoots ............ say a week or two between. We do that often in the early/mid seasons. Best, SRH |

We shoot opening day, then skip Labor Day (when the first Saturday is before Labor Day), then shoot the following Saturday again if there is adequate birds. From then on we only shoot it when there's birds aplenty to kill a few limits then leave some. And, we always pack up the guns early enough in the afternoon for the remaining birds to come in and feed unmolested.
I've been thinking about your post this morning about 50 shooters killing 50 limits. I'm not exaggerating when I say I couldn't find 50 shooters who could kill a limit, under the best conditions, no matter how hard I looked, or how long. There must be a better "grade" of dove shooter where you are, than here. SRH |

Mojos are great sometimes, and others they aren't worth the battery drain. The more Mojos there are in a field the less effective they are. I'll always remember the first time I ever put one out. A couple guys were sitting in the shade watching me set the thing up out from my stool a ways. I got it set up and turned it on. Before I got to my stool, where my gun was laying, they were hollering at me. I looked behind me to see several doves lighting by the Mojo. It drew them like yellow jackets to blood that afternoon. Within a couple years they often ignored it.
Some days now they don't seem to be worth the trouble of carrying them. They often still work great when they can be placed in an elevated position. On top of a center pivot irrigation system is super great. I have a 10 ft. pipe I put one on often. Much better elevated than near the ground, IMO. SRH |
