Ok guys, remember a couple of weeks ago when I said I got my first gun, the single shot 12 guage? Well I didn't get to shoot it for 2 whole weeks. We went dove hunting this evening after work. We got out to the field and didn't see any birds moving at all so we knew it would be a bad hunting day. Still, we knew there were some birds in this 200 acre field (an old maize crop with lots and lots of seeds) I walked down about 75 yds from the other hunter so we could start working this field.
I got about 10 feet from where I had planned to stop and 2 dove flew out of the field about 15 yards away. I pulled the gun up and pulled back the hammer, about 2 birds lenths of lead and BLAMM!!! The first shot with my new gun and I killed a dove :D That's so freaking satisfying! Only bummer was that those were the only birds we saw on the hunt....
Still not bad :D 1 shot 1 kill on my new gun!

LOL, was thinking the same thing.

LOL me too :( that's why God invented the freezer :D

The average dove hunter requires three shots for every bird he brings down. If 30 birds make a meal he will shoot up nearly four boxes of field loads to get them. At $% per box, plus the cost of vegetables, desert, and beverage, that meal will cost him only thirty dollars!
Bon appetite!

I meant $5 per box.
What a twit.

yeah dinner can be costly :) but I feel better about eating something I killed than I do buying meat at the store.
-
Yeah, but you take those 30 breasts, wrap them with bacon and jalapeno slivers, broil them up in celery, onion, garlic and chicken broth, and it is worth the cost. And if you need 3 shells per bird, you should drink less before you hunt.
-
I was talking about the "average" shooter. Not myself...;)
Dove are okay...but I prefer quail.

PERK THE SHOTGUN!!!!

Good job man, you shot a tiny bird feeding on human wastefullness that is so used to humans you could kill them with a tennis racket. Lucky you didnt panic and blow your own foot off.

The nice sounding recipe saves you. BUT:
Dont think you you should kill something times 30 to get one decent meal for yourself.
Shoot a goose or a wild turkey or a deer and you have a good meal for the whole family. The latter example feeds you and a few friends for a month. That's fair. But so called 30 "lives" for a meal? Damn man!
-
geese don't fly at 60mph :)
-
Guess my point "flew over your head" :) And they usually fly faster than 60.
-
You damned pansy, Loser. If it's meat and it tastes good it was meant to be killed and grilled! Now go to one of them strip bars with covered vaginas, have a drink and forget about the little birdies. :p
-
bah SOB the half covered part wasnt referring to where i live, it was most states south of the 49th. Though i hear they have some full nudy bars with good breakfast buffets in Wisconsin.
-
Oh...well in that case, I take back most of the bad things I've said about Canada over the years. Most of them, anyway...after all, Skernsk still lives there. :D

Here's a new one then. Zoning laws in my Province prohibit the sale of alcoholic beverages at "gentlemen's clubs"
Tis only a 4 hour drive either way for beer, boobs, and vaginas though.
-
No booze?! AAHHHH!!!
-
Very big parking lots with no cops for miles. And in and out privedlges ( so to speak)
-
WTG Udie!! :)

:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl
only a 4-hour drive?
I can give you directions to anywhere in Portland using nothing but tittie-bars for landmarks

This is actually a false statement. Yes he was feeding on human wastefullness and yes maybe he was "used to humans" But you could never kill one with a tennis racket durring hunting season. Dove are smart freakin animals. They KNOW when hunting season starts. I watch it every year durring the first week of September. Before that dove will fly at about 10ft off the ground and not dodge people at all. You'll see them in trees and on power lines and you can walk up and get close to them. Come hunting season though they all start flying at 200+ ft and will dodge around a human from 500 yds away if they see you, and they have very good vision. Come the first week in November and they'll go back to not worrying about humans.
They know what's going on....

Not the full meal silly, just PART of the meal.
I guess I should probably feel bad about the whole concept of "popcorn" shrimp too then :) Lots of lives lost the last time ole Sikboy went down to Buddy's Crabs and Ribs lol.

^ LOL being from louisiana I've often pondered the ethical ramifications of eating crawfish, and shrimp. I mean you can kill up to 4 or 5 lives for EACH BITE :D
That's why they drink beer with crawdads, it numbs them to the ethical delima they have put themselves into :D
-
Well gee goobers
Let's celebrate with a tracker pull.
Gotta love Rednecks - just gotta kill something with a gun to amuse them. :lol
-
A dove? isnt a shotgun overkill?
You can just use a bb-gun.
As for the shotgun, post again when you get a grizzly. And then you have to eat it too, with tree bark on the side, maybe then you will be as manly as TheWobble

Big city people are funny. :)

SOB, someone tried to hijack this thread and make it about hunting instead of nudy bars...That ain't right.
This one time i hooked up with a stripper in Brandon, Manitoba....discuss:

Went quail hunting this weekend. Very fun hunting them over desert terrain.
BTW, my avg for dove this year was just over 2 shots per bird.

hehe I love it when one of them calls me a redneck :D Ignorant fools don't know what they're talking about.
Animal,
Shotguns are not overkill. Sure a bb gun would do it if the thing was sitting still. But I want to see you or anybody hit something the size of a corn cob flying (and dodging) at 60mph+ ;) You'd also be surprised how many of them survive the shooting (not as many with a 12 than with a 20 guage.) Oh God they taste good though....
