Dove season

[TexTushHog]

I'd argue the two topics are inextricably linked. Suppose the first guy asks in a public forum, what's the best location to dispose of a murder victim's body. That certainly raises the question of the morality of murder.

Put the cool aide down and step back, Where and how do you think you get meat / chicken from stores Magic ?
I will not get into a long discussion on conservation , and Murder and eating birds Just damn

I love dove. If you harvest any extras and want to make sure they are ethically consumed, I am you guy.

[TexTushHog]

I eat meat and have no moral problem with ethical hunting. I just think one topic imimplicates the other.

I called around places I've hunted before, the concensus is the mournuing dove are for the most part still in Kansas and Nebraska.
Not too long ago a white wing anywhere north of San Antonio would make the newspaper, now they're hitting my bird feeder and defiling my windshields in Fort Worth.
Eurasians (collared) dove look just like a young pigeon when plucked. Bigger, and they squawk instead of coo.

For now, go towards Brownwood. This storm system comes through this week and holds together going northward, we may get some birds west of here.

Doves won't go to waste, I'm sure the hungry animals will appreciated the chow

I completely agree. Does every single post have to be a fucking rant?

Are we talking about hiding bodies because of murder (illegal) or did the OP ask about legitime places to hunt dove?

Try this site. I’ve had plenty of good luck here with short term leases. I also know some other places to check. Hope this helps and good luck! Dove hunting is fantastic! I sure miss quail hunting however. But the birds seem to be returning.

Also more info:
Whenever I’m looking for a lease, I check the county seat website. Each county almost always has lease listings and availability. It just depends on your location, how far you are willing to travel, and of course your price range. Tons of online tools to help you. Again, good luck!!

Meat is murder. Tasty. tasty murder.

In Texas it is illegal to waste a harvested game animal or bird. So if the game warden catches you leaving the dove you shot laying in the field, he will bust you for it.

But why would you do that? Dove are very tasty as is venison.

I 100% agree! I never kill anything I don’t eat. Dove is wonderful to eat! Ever go down to Argentina? Dove are killed by the 1000’s by hunters and just left there to lay and rot. It’s a sport. It’s a sport here as well, but responsible hunters harvest what they shoot and feed their families. There are a lot of dove leases around. I hope the OP finds one.👍
