Bush hog strips a few weeks before and as the season progresses. No need to burn or spray it.

People act like you have to have bare dirt for doves, because of their small spindly legs. Think about it, other than a dove field, where does this occur? No where, that's where. I have dove by the hundreds come in when I bush hog my cereal grains down. They land on the mowed grains with no problem. Yes they will feed in other places but I’m trying to differentiate my self from everyone else. I don’t want to just have doves, I want to have a lot of doves. All row crop fields have bare dirt

Yes they will feed in other places but I’m trying to differentiate my self from everyone else. I don’t want to just have doves, I want to have a lot of doves. All row crop fields have bare dirt One of the best dove hunts for me in the past few years was a 5 acre pumpkin patch I had planted. Hedge row of Autumn Olives and crab grasses growing around the pumpkins. I tried to keep the ground clean but crab grass just kept on keeping on. One of the best planted for dove fields we ever had, 4 row planter planting 2 passes of corn, then sorghum then millet, then soybean. As soon as brown top millet made we bush hogged it, Kept bush hogging every few weeks to hold the birds. We then planted wheat in strips the week of the opener. Opening day all we had left standing was several rows of corn to hide in. 100 to 200 birds per flock wave after wave of doves. We pulled birds from fields less than a mile a way of brown top millet that was cut and bailed for hay. Clean ground and tons of seed everywhere. They had a pond and power lines setup too. In all the years we prepared the best day in day out were locations that had a pond with clean edges, roost trees usually old dead oaks with large pines and strips of wheat planted and or sunflowers bush hogged. Most folks wouldn't look twice at some these spots we absolutely wore birds out for several, several weekends.

All row crop fields have bare dirt I understand that row crop fields are bare dirt down below, but there are tons of birds where there are no row crops. A new clear cut is a dove magnet and its not bare dirt. Burn it if you want to.
