Your hosts, Joe, Butch and Clint
talk with Seth Maddox from the Alabama Department of Conservation
and natural Resources and they discuss public and private land dove
hunting opportunities in Alabama. Seth talks about the declining
dove population and their habitat needs, including open ground for
feeding and scrubby cover along field edges for nesting. He
recommends planting crops like corn, millet, and winter wheat for
dove food and how to optimize your field to hold birds a few weeks
before the season. Smaller fields can be hunted less frequently
than larger fields. Clear cuts, roadsides, and power lines can
attract doves. Seth and the guys go in depth on how to be
100% legal while dove hunting and do's and don'ts of seed and feed
to avoid an unnecessary visit from the Game Warden! Morning hunts
can be productive too. Scouting is important to find feeding and
roosting areas with features like dead trees. Larger food plots
allow more frequent hunting.
