Easy Texas dove hunting tips

[LoneStarHunt4]

Dove season is here! I know what it is like to be a beginner, so here is what to do if you are one:

Find fields with sunflowers or water.
Use a 12 or 20-gauge shotgun with #7.5 or #8 shot. Wear camo clothes.
Hunt in the morning or evening.
Bag limits in Texas are usually 15 doves.
Check Texas rules for bag limits (usually 15 doves). Get a license.
More than that, be safe. Watch behind your target.

I hope it helps. Btw, I am hunting near Austin soon.

Good rundown. I'll add this too. Nring more shells than you think you need. Doves are fast and humble even good shooters.

I usually set up by a water tank with a Mojo decoy spinning, and they'll buzz in close. Early September mornings are hot and loud, nothing like it.
