    Doves in the Abilene area?

    Are they still in the area or have they moved out? I may be going up there this next weekend. I don't know exactly where the place is just know somewhere near Abilene. Thanks!

    I've heard mixed reports. I think close to town there are still decent numbers, including whitewing. Once you get past that, numbers have thinned out, apparently.

        Groups of birds still in N TX area

        Maybe they moved in with full moon and light north winds

          I didn't see many this past weekend until Saturday evening I think the cool front brought a new group in. Saw lots of birds Saturday evening and Sunday.

            U need to go 55 miles north of abilene up to haskell. I limited out yesterday. I've also never missed so many shots in my life. Another buddy of mine got 11. And a friend who's never shot got 5. Loads of birds. If u have a few people I day lease my property sometimes. Shoot me a pm if your interested. You will limit out

              I'm in Hawley about 15 miles north of Abilene. Our birds have been really hit or miss based on the weather. Storms keep pushing bunches out, then bringing new ones in. Last year it was birds everywhere, until about the third week, then nothing. This year, we haven't had consistent birds yet. I'm hoping the best is yet to come. Hunted Saturday a.m. and p.m., and me and my buddy managed 4 apiece in the morning and another 4 apiece in the afternoon, but that's all. Just not enough birds to shoot at to get a limit.
