2024 Dove Season

[RyanML]

No pictures and too hot for dogs unfortunately. 4 of us went to our spot in central California. Almost all limited out. Best year we've had in a while.

That is the ONLY way Dove should be cooked. Period!

I found soaking the Dove in the juice of the canned jalapeño does wonders for it.

It's just a shame how low the limit is. Luckily, we have Eurasian Dove multiplying. I don't know about states outside Texas, but they don't count towards your limit here.

I'm gonna try the jalapeño juice, good idea. Lots of collared dove in az as well.

I picked up a cz 20g sxs and left the franchi in the safe. Had a great start to the year in arizona. Gotta keep an eye out for spicy nope ropes. Got my limit in 45 minutes each day.

Very good 1st season here so far, just got a limit a little while ago.
Rain came in on us but they still flew.
Sunflowers mostly in this field

We did boneless bacon wrapped dove poppers with cream cheese and jalapeños this weekend. Fantastic as always. Definitely the best part of dove season.

They are my favorite wild game down here.
Our deer are good, but not as good as the Midwest corn/bean fed ones.
They are the closest to upper end Beef !

A good dove shoot as about as good as it gets. When was a kid in Yazoo county it was really good

My son and I will be giving them heck here in south TEXAS with all flavors of model 12's

Wife and I went out last Sunday, and then again this morning, we usually hit a couple of spots with watering holes near the border and do pretty good.

First year ever that we don't run in to a rattler, but we did see lots of gambel's quail, so quail season should be good too.

We'll wrap them in bacon and grill them in kabobs with some veggies. Trying the jalapeño slice in them this year.
