In this Dove Hunting 101 video I discuss the "how to" of dove hunting for those that are beginners in the sport. The three main topics that are covered is what gear you need for dove hunting, where to find doves, and how to effectively hunt them. The video offers a mix of tips/tricks, explanations, and strategies throughout that will hopefully help novice dove hunters be legal and have good hunts. I've been dove hunting since I could shoulder a .410 shotgun and the 2019 season will be my 5th year filming my dove hunts. I hope everyone learned at least something from this video and is able to get out and have fun in a dove field this fall.

I hunted for a month got one I guess that’s because I live in Pennsylvania I got shot by a idiot sky blasting a robin the pellets landed on me thank goodness for safety glasses always where them dove hunting when your staring at the sky the pellets could get in your eyes

@wakh4 Год назад

Great tip of using a marker as your range limit. Lots of beginners don't realize how far 40 yards are.

@HokeOutdoors Год назад

Thank you! Figuring out your effective range is definitely one of the harder parts about getting into wing shooting IMO

@slyflyby 4 года назад

Great 101 dove hunting video Thomas.The best tip to estimate that Max range of 40-45 yards you were speaking of I got from a guide in Mexico of 50+years experience. He pointed out that the bead of most all shotguns will cover up a flying dove at that range... take an empty shell box step off that range put your bead on it and, there you are! Of course the bead in any kind of wing shooting plays "no part" in success but it sure helps the beginner dove hunters. One thing not mentioned but important to dove hunting, particularly to a novice is shoot an open choke... IC or even skeet. Sorry for the book!

@HokeOutdoors 4 года назад

Thanks Sly! I'd never thought of using that method for figuring out range but I can see how that would work. I went back and forth about including a point about chokes in this video but decided to leave it simple and cover it in my next video.

@@HokeOutdoors Thanks! Scouting the past few weeks is gonna put us directly in their flight path. Morning and evening flights literally yield tens of thousands of mourning, white wing, and Eurasian doves. Our group of six will likely limit out in about 30 minutes if we take our time. 😜 Time to stack em!

@gogitr8904 3 года назад

Great info I wanna get out and wing hunt more because it gives me a long hunting season as I primarily only hunt deer, hogs, and squirrels in Texas. I went duck hunting once and loved it but I didn’t like sitting on a chair in the marsh I’m looking to do it again but from a boat or duck blind .

Great video! Very helpful! I’m out here in Southern California and have just recently found out that there is some pretty decent public land for upland game birds.

I remember having a tons of fun and finding out what freedom felt like.

@gaaroutdoors5281 4 года назад

I'm looking to start dove hunting. I'm trying to learn as much as possible. How affective is a 16 ga? I hear about 12 and 20, but what about the middle of those?

@HokeOutdoors 4 года назад

16 gauges are plenty effective for doves. They used to be one of the most common gauges used for wing shooting actually. Unfortunately they fell out of favor when the 12 gauge became so popular. If you can find shells and a 16 gauge to shoot though I'd definitely go for it!

@lethalweeaboo2239 3 года назад

I just got a 28 ga. I never really cared for shotguns until now like 12 or 20 ga because I don't like recoil. I really like it.

This video is very informative! I am an advanced dove hunter but I just wanted to try and learn something new. The only thing is a foot is not a yard, a yard is 3 feet. 45 steps isn't 45 yards.

@youflyibuy Год назад

An average full stride (step) is usually about 3 feet. That being said. 45 stps = 45 yds. That might have been what he meant.

Grab it by the head and flick your wrist once or twice. The body will come detached from the head and you can drop the head and pickup the body
