is seeing a TON of WW DOVE??? I am covered up with them in Dilley and Bishop. Seems like hundreds of them moved in over the last 2 weeks! Everyone is saying this year is going to be one of the best seasons for SOUTH TEXAS DOVE HUNTING.. and I can agree!! www.dovehuntingsouthtexas.com

Not seeing a lot of WW but I'm arse deep in Mourning Doves. Drove around my 117, 30 and 60 acre field this morning and counted around 275 in about 30 minutes. Hope they stick around. Fields look better this year than they have in the past 2-3 years thanks to the big 5.7" rain we received in July...
Good Luck,,Should be a good year..

They tend to jump around from field to field sure they will show themselves again especially when shooting starts. I just have a good fly zone between roost and grain fields and having tank with a little water helps to. Wish you luck, don't fret they'll be back

They are beginning this week to cut all the milo and sunflowers and this should spread them out considerably. There seem to be plenty to be spread around though.

Today we just shredded close to 900 acres of corn for insurance. While talking to my farmer I watched the doves pouring in the field. I stopped counting around 300. Its going to be a EPIC year in South Texas.
