How is everyone's field looking with a week to go before the season opener? Seeing lots of doves or is it just so so? I have a friend that has a place just outside of Oneonta and he's reporting decent numbers as of last weekend as he was getting ready to bush hog some of his planted crops.
What's a case of 12 gauge 7&1/2 or #8 going for these days?
I hope everyone has a great opening day and shoot straight and stay safe out there !!

I'm 10 mins east of Oneonta, we have a few flying....it's typically better the later here but the storm could screw that up...

I just hope the storm coming thru on Monday and Tuesday doesn't foul us up for opening day, not to mention making fields a muddy mess.

Bush hogged the millet two weeks ago and had 50-100 in it already. Disc and top sowed yesterday. Only saw about 20. Maybe they will come back.

Top sewed a field in Florida yesterday. Summer plots have sorghum in them so every field we went to had a dozen or so birds in it. Hopefully the clean ground in the “dove field” will concentrate them. Season doesn’t open until the 25th here so we got a little time to get them going.

I'm wondering what this lingering cool front is going to do to the birds come Saturday? I sure wished this week would have been a bit drier. Can't have every I guess.

In a weird turn of events, if anyone needs shells let me know. Wife tested positive for the Covids today so I got un-invited to the dove hunt on Saturday rofl

Not looking to just get rid of the ammo but if anyone is having a hard time finding any around Huntsville, let me know. 12 ga 2 3/4

Sorry jono, that's got to suck. . I hope that your wife is ok.
Y'all don't kill um all tomorrow.. shoot straight and stay safe.
Everyone report back when you get rested up to say how you did and how the birds were flying.
I'm headed out about 9:00AM to my buddy's place up toward Oneonta to give them a go. Good luck everyone!!!

Too bad about the un-invite, surprised being outside and social distancing of 25-50 yards is a concern to folks!
