never had decoys make a difference with doves (unless they were live birds in a tree or on the grnd around a tank) Skillet shot usually took care of the ones around the tank though

If you don't have a lot of shooters they have helped me get them in closer. Here in alabama you can't use the battery driven ones so I have a bunch of the windmill types.

Do you put them low to the ground or up high like the dove decoy tree you can buy. I think I'm gonna put one low to the ground right next to my sand pile with about 30 decoys.

I have some with limb clips to put in a tree. Looks like a clothes pin. Most of the windmill ones come with a stake that puts them about a foot off the ground.I put out about six of those and some feeders. I think dove hunting here is a little different cause we shoot alot over peanut fields after we pick them. If you dont have enough shooters to keep them flying you just about have to decoy.

My dad might or might not have used the battery powered dove decoys last year.

Is there anywhere public to hunt dove in LA. We duck hunt on a lake near Ville Platte. No doves. I would love to try it

Thanks. Will check it out.

Do you hunt doves at sunrise like teal or just anytime in the day?

I hunted with some Mojos last year and they seemed to work for getting the doves to dive in low.

Counting isn't a strength, huh? Don't worry. Lots of people think it's hard.
