Dove hutting locations
« on: August 09, 2017, 12:42:47 pm »
After years of hunting lots of things I know that most hunters will not tell anyone about good spots to go.  They all think spots should be secret and private.  I although never have felt that way.  I like to share and maybe bring success to others. 

Dove season will be opening soon and I am looking for maybe somewhere different and new to try out this year.  Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas of where to go?  Anything is appreciated.

    Maricopa is a good place.  Be sure you are not on the Reservation.

    Dysart Road by  Luke AFB is good too.

    Avondale Blvd. and Broadway is where I go. A buddy of mine knows the owner of the feed lot there and they let us hunt it. There's a few other places Southwest of the city where you can hunt as well.

    There's some state trust land a few miles east of Kings Ranch Rd on the south side of the 60 that has a few tanks and we did pretty well out there last year. That's out in Gold Canyon
    Heat it till it's hot, then beat it with a hammer until it's the shape you want.    Blacksmith's advice that works for pretty much everything in life

    I'm in Buckeye, I don't know anyone or where to go. The white tanks are next to me, but so far everyone I talk to says it's a no go. I'm not asking for specific locations, but if anyone could give me a general location I can do the research and scout it out. I sure do miss my WA State farm neighbors, made for easy and fun hunts.

    Try Rainbow Valley area, there has been a ton shooting the last three days. Lots of farms and a couple stockyards ;-)

    I went Saturday to a new spot (private land) and the the hunters there said that was the poorest shooting they have seen in 15 years.  I shoot maybe 4.

    Went out today, jackrabbit all the way down to the last right you can take before the road turns into dirt. Was very late getting out. There was a gentleman and his son out there, nice people. Saw a cotton tail and a huge rattle snake.

    So far Arizona has been a bit rough, and has forced me to buy some snake Gators.....Amazon..prime shipping 👍 Won't get me down though. I read through the AZ regs again and apparently there's a place called Robbins Butte? After September 3rd it's open to everyone unless I read that wrong. Seems like a good place to go, not even to far of a drive for me. Anyone been there past seasons? Says, dove, cotton tail and quail reside there because of crops planted by game and fish?

    Last Season Dove hunting is coming up, We have had good success hunting the State Trust land East of Gold Canyon. Picked up a MOJO Dove decoy this year and the thing works great.
