Got to go hunting on Saturday with a buddy and the hunting was phenomenal. We were hunting over a sunflower crop and the doves were coming in like crazy. I was sitting right next to my buddy and his son, so it was tough to get clean shots on birds, but when I did I was doing pretty good. By 3:00 I was done shooting my 15 bird limit and we were actually at a slower part of the field. It was a really good time.

Towards the end of my limit, my buddy took his dog behind our spot and went to look for a bird. I dropped a bird right in front of us and walked out to pick it up. While I was out there, I dropped another 4 birds with 4 shells and had them laying all over the place. My buddy's son was telling his dad "He is He!! on doves". It was a good time.

As far as hunting with lawyers and judges, I would have to find a new place to hunt. LOL

Dan Morris, When I lived in Canon City, we would give the early duck seasons heck in the San Luis Valley. It was really good around Saguache and Alamosa. It is a long one day drive but for you leave on Friday pm and return Sunday pm. I don't kow how the natural ponds are this year but we hunted the artesian water at Alamosa, Monte Vista. and south of Saguache. It was a ball hunting early teal on Saguache Creek. Stand in the creek and shoot in self defense when they came screaming around the bend in the creek. I don't know know if it is all signed now as that was 35 years ago.
