As far as i know pigeon season is not open on the September 1st Dove opener. Not to be a Game Warden or anything but I in fact know that if it was in September and judging by the weather it was. It was unlawful in the state of california to take that bird. But I am glad it did not go to waste. Nice Hunting.

Pidgeons (aka Rock doves) are open year round in CA. Please check you regulation book before you assume someone broke a game law. Thank you.

dont know if you have to wear orange to hunt dove in CA but the orange tends to flare the birds. Dont have to deck out in camo but natural colors help. Good video!
