Saturday is one of the highlights of my year, the first day of dove season! Nice sunflower field with sons, grandson and friends. My boys and grandson and I are all shooting my reloads, 20 for me and 12 for them. 7/8 oz 8 1/2 shot @ 1300 fps out of IC for me, 1 1/8 oz #8 at 1200 IC for them. Temp supposed to moderate from recent wet broil we've been on for last week. Cleaned up the last frozen ones in July and smoked doves are all our favorites. Thank the Lord for another season, my 50th behind the gun.
