Big Browns Report post Posted August 14, 2016 Adam, what choke are you using for doves in your 28 ga.? It depends on how close they are flying, but most of the time I use Cylinder & Modified chokes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DesertBull Report post Posted August 14, 2016 It's a really fun hunt but I can't choke them down anymore so quit shooting them. Yes, I've tried every known method of cooking known to man and it taste like I'm chewing on a galvanized nail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azruger Report post Posted August 16, 2016 Was out yesterday and looked very promising for opening day. Dry conditions in the future will hopefully congregate the birds to the ponds I will be hunting. Taking the kids and wife this year to try their hand at Good ol arizona wing shooting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muledeerarea33? Report post Posted August 23, 2016 Watch those Tucson ponds azruger. There can be 20 guys tryin to hunt one pond. Be careful or move in if it's not safe. First come first served doesn't apply for dove hunting near the city. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
savagman Report post Posted August 25, 2016 Amazing how ignorant some people can be. I got to my spot before dawn and had people set up way too close to me after I arrived. After being peppered several times I moved away to a lesser location only to have more guys move in on me. After looking into several barrels as they swung on low fliers, I gave up and went home. Not worth losing an eye over. I sit out opening weekend. May try Thursday though. Maybe most guys are working??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elkaholic Report post Posted August 25, 2016 Anyone got a little spot for a handicaped hunter-- he doesnt really concider hisself handicapped but is basically imobil due to several back surgeries - I'll most likely have to play go fetch just want to get him out at least once and shoot a few birds. live north phx - not many places up here anymore even a spot you 'd concider your 2nd 3rd choice just askin - wanted to do the in s - phx farm shoot - last yr but fees and they were booked - it didnt work out thanks to all possible replies I didn't even get out last yr . -- cities have annexed all the close hunting - not really wanting to drive 100 + miles to shoot a few mouthfuls anymore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
