Hunting season is about to kick off in Texas. And dove are the first major opportunity for hunters.
Beginning Sept. 1, some 400,000 Texas hunters will take to the field and bag somewhere in the neighborhood of five million doves. With the mourning dove population alone exceeding 30 million, this state is unlike any other in terms of hunting these sporting birds.

“Two species (red-billed pigeon and band-tailed pigeon) are currently listed as legal game birds by federal and state regulations, but are not hunted in Texas due to limited numbers and distribution,” officials said.
“Two other species (Inca dove and common ground-dove) are sparrow-sized birds with no potential for hunting and for which no formal management actions are undertaken.”
If you hunt doves, your time is near. If you don’t hunt them, what are you waiting for?
