is everybody ready?
20 days till dove opener.... I'm not even close , I've got 3/4 a box of shells left from last year. Never got my hunting box with drawers built for the back of my explorer so i can leave pretty much everything except firearms and dogs. I wanted to build a double kennel for the dogs to go on top so whenever i get the urge all i gotta do is grab the dogs and run . Although i have an excuse since we've got a baby on the way and tryin' build another bedroom it's still not much of one.

I have boxes and boxes of shells left over from last year's dove season because I was ready for that one and barely got to go.
My excuse was planning a wedding and remodeling a townhouse. This year, the wedding is done and the only thing left to be done in the townhouse is the garage, which I hope to tear into this weekend. A week from today at this time, I will be loading my gun up with some #7 1/2's and heading out to my spot with Nitro. I just came in from playing fetch with him and he is out of shape. Hopefully, seeing the doves and being out in the field will give him some motivation.

You know a friend of mine mentioned this today that he has not seen the numbers compared to last year on the doves. I have not seen this either and not sure what the deal is .?

Good luck to all

We stumbled on a spot last year that was pretty thick with Grouse so I may head up there tomorrow and give it a shot.

I will miss the opener as FEMA is sending me to Atlanta for starters and will be gone most of Sept.
