SOUTH TEXAS HUNTING OUTFITTERS - OPENING WEEKEND SOUTH ZONE DOVE SEASON (PIC HEAVY)

Well, opening weekend of the South zone has come and gone. We had some interesting weather patterns over the weekend but we still hammered on some birds! Friday was the start to a great opener, most of our hunters killed limits while others finished the morning hunt with a 5-8 bird average. The ability to shoot played a major part in the equation. We had a few thunderstorms move in on Saturday after the morning hunt but this did not affect the birds too much. Again, most hunters got their limit while others ended up with half a dozen or more in their bag. We were hunting over cut milo fields. Sunday was great- calm weather and a nice North wind this morning. Still good wing shooting after 2 solid days of hunting. Out of 26 fields we hunted 5 this weekend due to weather issues. Lots of waste grain on the grain kept the birds feeding over the 3 days we hunted. All in all it was a great weekend and we are looking forward to a solid second weekend with some new birds and cooler weather!

Nice work, and congrats to your growing business and the write up.

I was down around Rivera beach the dove were thick some of the best iv seen in a long time, saw a lot of quail also, was a great weekend, the skeeters were bad but worth it, plus got my Kings Inn fix for a while!! and on a side note got close to a momma bobcat with 2 little ones

Great pics and recap of your hunts. Nothing like a good South Texas dove weekend! I limited on Friday near La Pryor (mourners in Sunflower field) and on Saturday limited near Dilley (milo field, all mourners).

That's for the comments.

We also had a few groups hunting in Jourdanton. They did very good on Friday and Saturday. Mainly whitewings and a few mourning doves.

I will be scouting later in the week to see if this small front pushed any new birds down- hopefully it did not push any out but you never know.
