I have never hunted at Stompy's place, but I hope to some day. For a man who has a commercial interest in selling dove hunts, it is great to see his honest reports.
We hunted in Jones County last two weekends near Noodle Texas. Was hit and miss. Not too many birds... Best hunting out there is usually in Oct. Stompy runs a first class operation for sure. Thanks guys, just need the weather to cooperate. This deal from beginning to end depends on weather.

Stinks. Have to hit the Ultra Light when there is not enough birds to burn the calories off.

No kidding, haying Cows in September sucks. Glad I have extra hay this year. I've had 1.2" since July 1st, and that was 2 different rains.

So. Given that temperatures are suppose to stay constant for the next 10 days, when are y'all heading back out? I've been going once or twice a week because I can, but the drive and time is getting old when I'm not bringing anything home.
P.S. I was out this morning in Rockwall County. I saw maybe a handful of dove, and a whole lot of songbirds.

I was out earlier this week scouting some public land around rockwall. I saw a couple other trucks pull in after me but heard no shots fired. I finally managed to bag 5 but it was a rough day out. To the gentleman in with the grey vest if you see this I managed to get that bird in the water. I just had to get a little wet.  I will not loose a bird! Last week me and a friend went out to #2316 which looked to have soybeans? on it which was recently cut. Lots of birds in the distance but only saw about 5 which were within 80 yards. That was on the north west part of the field. Shoot me a PM if y'all want to go out there and meet up. Generally I'm out there by 0600 week days are best for me. Good luck!

Montgomery county. Nothing. Not 1 bird seen in flight or on a wire in weeks. Went to the deer lease just south of Richards yesterday around 10am. Jumped 2 ringnecks, 3 ww and 1 morning dove out of different trees as I was walking around.

Brenham TX: no birds in the area. have small tank on properly typically they come in prior to sunset, all gone here. Need major front to bring some new birds.
Heading down to south Texas next month maybe more birds there at some public hunt properties.
hunt safe all.

Me and one of my sons went to Throckmorton . Hunted Saturday afternoon and this morning. We each got limits both days. You would have thought Saturday afternoon was opening weekend with all the birds we have. That makes 7 hunts for me and that same son...all limits. My youngest son has 5 hunts and 5 limits. Oldest son has 3 hunts and 30 birds total. We are shooting a fair number of northern birds now. Few, if any at all really small, young dove in our harvest. All are big fat dove to good average size dove.

It was a little slower this weekend in Woodson. Hunted with texasdove.net again and got 13 (one whitwing) in the morning and had to hunt the evening to get my last two. The Saturday evening hunt was interrupted by a violent squall for about 30 minutes. Lighting cracked above our heds and my sone and I ran for the SUV. Got ourselves and the dogs in the vehicle just in time to miss the deluge. Shot my first two Eurasian ringnecks Sunday morning at the Puddin's Gorman field nar Graham. My son shot another rignnek. That was a real treat. Going to grill them up tonight and try them out.
