They year we did have a season on the southern border counties, we were hunting a 5 acre wheat field for geese up north that had just been overseeded with alfalfa. It was a dove hunters dream. There had to be 500 doves feeding in the field.
To far for me to drive to Indiana for a chance to shoot dove.

I feel for you multibeard. If I couldn't hunt doves here in Virginia I swear I believe I would move. Our problem here in Virginia (though not as bad as yours) is not being able to hunt at all on Sundays. I firmly believe that the continuation of this absolutely stupid law is due in large part to hunter apathy. I think if enough of us complained long enough and loud enough that the General Assembly would have to listen. Maybe in a few years. I know our Va. Dept. of Game & Inland Fisheries has been looking at a number of "test the waters" type plans to place before the legislature to at least get Sunday hunting's foot in the door.
