I have heard that dove hunting is big in the south. They just legalized it here in MN a couple years ago and I don't know anyone who does it. Does anybody on here from Mn do it ? How do you go about it ?

Tuckner shot them up pretty good hunting with Waller last fall. I think they were hunting pretty close to Hastings.

Look for a patch of "hash" next to a sandpit and you are in bussiness. Dove is real good table fair when done up right And it's also a great warm-up for the upland seasons

I've done well walking gravel pits and wind rows. In college, we used to set up decoys and wait them out but that always resulted in some good .

Mn. has areas managed for public dove hunting that don,t see much use. Check out the DNR website for the locations.

Just got back from Oklahoma. Hunted with some guys I went to college with. We hunted in a freshly cut milo field. Got out early Saturday morning and waited for them to start flying. Walked the fields in the evening and Sunday morning, just like pheasant hunting.
What a blast!!
Shot about 50 birds from Friday evening until Saturday evening. Just about enough to feed 8 of us.
I have had good luck in corn fields around here the first couple days after they have been cut.

Give a man a fish, he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, he will sit in the boat and drink all day.
