#1: Great start to the season Author: wiersy111, Location: Central MinnesotaPosted: Mon Oct 06, 2014 12:04 am ---- So far this season is off to a good start. I had to work opening day last weekend but we are making up for it as we go. We had a good hatch up here in Minnesota this year. We are at 20 birds for the year and are still missing way more birds than we should. I just wish I could hunt for five days and work for two.

It's about a mile paddle in to where I hunt and a lot ofthe creek is thick weed and choked. Not that I am complaining, being that hard to get to also keeps 90% of the hunters out. Then number of birds and lack of hunters make it worth the work getting in there.

They say only 3 doves are taken for every box of 25 shotshells. I been doing good with a dozen birds per box. I'd do better if I didn't take those hail-Mary shots at those zoom by high overhead.
