Pick up birds as you kill them.....doves are small and hard to find in a field and all sunflowers look the same. If you have a dog, even better.

yea that why ill only shoot one at a time if they are in a hard to find field, almost impossible to mark two unless you want to waste a bunch of time looking for your second one.

Great tips! 1 add-on.... Take a new guy with you , expose someone new to this sport so we can keep this sport alive. Not all of us had Dads or Grandpas teach us this stuff so I feel its up to us to pass this joy along, every new hunter supports all of us and the companies that make our gear. Sure we all have said " damn there's to many guys out here" but we all had that FIRST HUNT!!

I like that you mention you’re self taught because that’s exactly how I am right now. This is only my second year hunting. I picked it up myself because my dad or grandpa never hunt, only fish. So your videos with tips and advice are awesome for me and I hope I can spread this info to someone else down the line who are in our shoes

Can not wait! One of my favorite days of the year.

Love the tips! We are spoiled with a cut silage field right next to a gravel pit. Food, gravel, and water all within 400 yards. Shot a 4 man limit on Sept 1 and Sept 5!

Another great video mate, nice work. Cheers for sharing what you have learnt and encouraging others to do so also, it helps a waterfoul/bird newbie like me a lot. I have the interest but none of my mates or anyone I know can show me how to do it properly. I love it when I come across someone that is willing to pass on a few tips to help me get started out, it is always greatly appreciated. Even though we are hunting half a world away from each other, a lot of the information and tips in your videos works the same or similar here in Australia (which is great for me). Cheers 😎👍👌👏👏👏

Great video you covered all the basics and then some if you're hunting with a first-timer or younger Hunter keep an eye on them and that help them identify doves versus sparrow hawks also you're never too old to learn a new trick

Intelligent and informative video as usual. Commenters are very knowledgeable as well. U have a good channel going here!

can you do a video on packing in for duck hunts? like essentials for what you bring for those hunting where you need to pack in far.

Biggest tip I have from years of dove hunting is to have a cooler for the doves. Like you said, it’s 90deg plus. You don’t want your birds stuffed in a game bag getting hot sitting in the heat until you get done shooting. After you shoot a few toss them in your ice chest. Of course follow game regulations on tagging and possession. Even better is to quickly breast them out and pop them in there. It makes the meat so much better if you cool them off asap. I usually have an ice chest in back of side by side. With drinks in it and a grocery sack or two for the doves. I’ve used a separate small ice chest with a frozen 2 liter bottle in it as well. Number 2 is motion. When mojo doves came out I thought what a marketing scheme. But I broke down and bought one. Took it to public field and it worked! They would come straight to me from far away. Now I use a few and flock flickers on the ground. Sometimes it really helps to get them to veer towards you and not your buddy a few hundred yards away!

You need to get out and do some pigeon hunting in the summer. It tuned us in for upcoming dove season and as you said it’s an awesome time with friends. Dove decoys a couple duck mojos and your golden we had an absolute blast this summer

My second year hunting dove, can't wait, thanj you for your videos, inspires me to hunt

Thanks for the info, this is my first time going dove hunting and I need all the information you can give us.

If it flies it dies! Excited to see your videos this season.

Enjoy your videos. Always pick up some kind of tip.

Great tips! Pumped for the season to start.

Great tips. You are spot on. I am 52 and as a kid my Dad taught me everything you are saying today. Funny how things don't change. Great Job!!!

I have done the fishing pole on the power line all of my life and have never seen or heard of it ever being an issue. They come right to it as well.

really enjoyed this video. positive, common sense tips.

Good information!!! I dig the rick Hahne Calls hat!!!! I need to get a shirt!!

Keep the dove vids coming!

My two biggest things I notice on opening day is spacing between hunters. I like to have 35-40yards between me and the people on each side. That way we can cover the 20yds each way but not be right on top of each other. Also know where the other hunters are at especially on the other side of the field so you are not peppering someone on the other side of field. I follow the sky behind the barrel rule and it is the best method to prevent the peppering I found.

I like to watch thies videos cause some time you just for get stuff and you need to refresh 😊

Good video! You should make a goose calling tutorial for all us up here that has early goose instead of dove or teal. I know you made on a couple years or so back but you should make a new one.

Great tips dude! Only 2 weeks left.

Work the area to your advantage. If you see a particular flight pattern move your position to where it benefits from your favorite type of shot and your bird to shell ratio

Thanks, I hunt public land and this info helped.

It works did the power line decoy last year

Putting a dove decoy on a fishing pole and throwing it over the power line works great, isn’t harmful and it looks real! Just hide the pole👍🏻

@timjohnson4332

Does the decoy stay below the power line?

Great video as always but just to point out on number 8 when you recommend bringing alot of shells just remember if you are hunting public dove fields at least in the state of south Carolina there is a 50 shell limit per person. Always check local laws before going out opening day. Keep up the great content

Fellow WEBB WMA hunter?

Your first tip happened to me I shot a bird, straight at me 11 year old kid with a brand new Beretta over and under shot in my direction if I didn't hit the ground the shot would have hit me square in the face and probably be dead. Let's just say 5 game wardens with their lights on came flying up the field took both of them away banned them from the Wildlife Management Area i hunt on. Very scary

Good luck this dove season

Duck season is coming up for teal and wood duck and this will be my first time hunting ducks, first year hunting in general. I was told by some local hunters here in florida that where im going its best to walk through the marsh miday and try to jump shoot. I have a few spots for the early morning that look decent but do you have any advice for jump shooting. I dont have a boat, im just walking in waiders.

Hunt before a heavy storm. the doves fly like crazy. or just before a cool front breaks through.

Thank you!

First time hunter. Going solo, starting out with dove. Next Deer first muzzle loader. Any tips...

I got a dream dove spot by a pond and power line and across the street is a maize field

Biggest thing I could add to this is find the natural funnel point in the field. Where the birds enter to where they go. 90% of the time, the birds will have a roost tree which they fly from and they'll make a somewhat consistent route through the field(until someone turns them into a feather duster). BE THE FIRST SHOOTER ON THE FUNNEL. If you're the last of 5 guys to be taking a shot every time, you're gonna have a rough day.

U can put the decoy over the line with the fishing pole it is 100% safe been doing it all my life and works better for doves than the mojo in my opinion

A battery operated "mojo voodoo" dove does wonders I have one it was maybe $50 at Wal-Mart, it adds movement and keeps you mostly out of the spot light they are more fixed on the mojo

Tip: clean up after yourself. If you're moving around pick up your spent shells and birds as you go. Have a multipocket vest with pockets for birds, shells, and trash.

Love your videos

Also keep in mind, at least here in Kansas, a lot of KDWPT land is non toxic shot only. Save yourself a fine and research thoroughly

quick question for everyone...is there a time of day when scouting doves is best? Do you scout them in the morning and in dusk like waterfowl ? Or does just anytime of the day work? Thanks!

If you have access to Milo fields, scout em. Dove eat up the milo

A four pack isn't 20-25....because honestly you wanna being hi brass heavy shot...preferably 1 1/4 ounce 7.5-8 that way you can shoot much farther if need be. Swing through the bird at distance... depending on distance sometimes leading the bird up to six feet

Yep yeeeppp

If they’re at the tree line height that’s when you shoot

I’ve shot like four boxes of clays

**FIRST TIME DOVE HUNTERS**Make sure there is no limit to the amount of shells you can have in your possession on the property you are hunting. Where I hunt you can only have 4 box’s on you. Don’t forget to check and make sure if you need a plug in your gun or not. It’s open season for CO’s to bust people not doing it right.Ignorance is not bliss!
