If ya don'tsee many birds after the rain, give it a couple days and the Kansas birds will start to come down to get in front of the "colder" air ...and most of the other Hunters will have stopped thinking about Dove hunting as well.

If you are Hunting on a APH there used to be some decent places north & west of G'ville. Ask the GW that lives in Celeste where the birds are, if he's still there. Was a nice guy to us several times.

Thanks Ron, hopefully some will come down with this cool weather. Didn't see much on Saturday and nothin on Sunday.

I was hunting just north of Greenville. I cant remember the GW's name but if its who I'm thinking about he still lives in between Greenville and Kingston.

Not Greenvile, but I'm seeing crazy numbers of dove on the phone lines near Farmersville.
