3 1/2s are so early 2000s.... my preferred set up is a full bag of corn in one giant pile about 50 yards away from my 1 1/2 gauge punt gun. I will need help in spreading out the limit or maybe I should just host a bbq over lunch so I can get 2 shots in that first day.

This should kill a dove, probably needs a full choke.

"Question: 3 1/2 Shells for dove?" If you mean the number of shells fired per bird, my average is a little more than that.

I was wondering if this would make another showing this year. Someone needs to go back 2 or 3 years and find the thread about "what's the best ghillie suit for dove hunting?"
Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.

go ahead and waste your money. You wont have worry about cleaning them. There will be nothing left to eat. Also buy a good shoulder pad. Hunting doves in a t shirt is a lot different thdn what you would normally wear hunting ducks or geese.

I carry a couple extra turkey loads but they are not for the dove... The pattern it makes on the quarter panel of truck that decides to pull up right next to me 10 mins before legal shooting light is a site to behold.
