dove hunting joke

A man stops by a sporting goods store, buys a box of dove loads, and asks the man at the counter for recommendations on where he might find some doves. The salesman tells him about a great spot a short distance away, and the customer goes on his way.

An hour or so later he returns to the store and asks the salesman, "What's the limit on doves around here?"

Impressed that the man could have bagged his limit so quickly, the clerk replies, "20."

Reaching for his wallet, the hunter says, "Well...better give me 19 more boxes of those dove loads..."

Wish i could still do this.
Its illegal to do now in MI.
I remember when we we're kids my Grandfather used to always keep a little bit of Oil in the pan at our cabin, never know when he was going to come in from having his ciggerate with a dove or not.

Yea, 06.
Popular vote. It came up on the ballot, it was like Prop 9.
I still nab one or two occasionally, but too many and people start asking questions.

Default Re: Any dove hunters out there?

was out there for 4 hours today, got only one fucking dove. only saw about 4 doves and thats was even when i was walking around. decided to try ditch jumping ducks and didnt see any but i took a shot at a dove while i was walking, what a waste of a #2 steel shot lol


i miss my gun tho. i am using my granpas 12 gauge pump shotgun and a 20 gauge single shot. because the guns that i use are technically grandpas and they are sitting at big 5 pending transfer of ownership to me so to legallly kill a duck i have to use steel shot, and i wasnt about to buy 12 ga steel shot so i brought the 20 ga for steel (ducks) and the 12 for doves.

my real gun is a 20 ga 870 express magnum

----------

oh and i also aimed at a jackrabbit (never ate one but ive decided to kill anything that has a season and try them) but decided that i didnt want to deal with a rabbit today lol
