Try a peach slice with the chicken breast, then wrap the bacon.

Well then... Perhaps the pigeon hunters should let the little birds live, and stick to eating hot dogs or tofu wrapped in bacon and jalepenos, eh?




Woke!

So, what do you eat in your perfect diet? Fish? Someone catches and kills them. Chicken? Horrific, unsanitary, crowded conditions, and terrifying deaths. Beef? Veal? Pork? Need I mention veal pens, slaughterhouses, factory farms, hog farm waste, etc.

Unless all you eat are plants and grubs, I expect you have some blood on your hands as well. What about those grubs? Don't they have feelings?

People have hunted long before they invented mountain bikes, spandex panties, and vente lattes.

I thought you were a mountain biker, but I guess the others here are correct. You're just a troll.

Dove, pigeon, same thing.
They are all columbidae.
I think dove is the german word, pigeon is probably french word.

Goat, defender of pigeons, I am glad you speak up for the opposing viewpoint. Myself, well, I am not a hunter. A question though, on the topic, what do you hunter guys think about steel shot? Ryan Zinke, on his first day as secretary of the interior rescinded an Obama-era policy of the Fish and Wildlife Service to ban lead shot (and lead fishing weights) in federal wildlife reserves (this allowed hunters to use lead shot again) The reason, I think, was as a much a reaction (hatred) against "Federal overreach" of the Obama administration as anything.
In my prospecting adventures I have observed that in the US that the public lands in the desert, as well as the creeks in the mountains, are full of lead shot and bullet fragments. The land is literally carpeted with lead. I know this because I am fond of digging up dirt and putting it in a pan and washing it to see if any heavy metallic elements will be found in the bottom of the pan. In the US I find a lot of lead. In Baja this is not the case; the land is more or less lead free. That is why the condors have been able to make a recovery there; not always getting poisoned by lead shot.

The hunters argument against lead ban is “but it’s too expensive!”
Same arguments Dow chemical, Monsanto use to justify their pollution.
Sad!
Lame!

If “sportsmen” care about the resource they hunt, they would quit using lead ammo!

I went to Yuma dove hunting for 30 years straight, maybe more. We started out in Blythe, then Brawley, El Centro but once we "found" Yuma, that was the place. I haven't been back in the last several years after moving to Ohio, thank God I have doves on our property here. I'm also 60. My brother will be back in Yuma for the second season.

We can go to Argentina and shoot 5000 doves a day because there are so many and because the do heavy damage to crops in the ground that goat might eat :-)

BTW, plants have feelings too! Can't you hear the lettuce screaming when you cut it with a knife?

Lets not get into the CFC argument that Montsanto started about R-12.
Or give me one good reason why 80% propane/20% butane can't be used for a car refrigerant? Both are listed as refrigerants. It works great but don't ask me how I know. For @ 50 cents per car.

I've been going since 1976, before that, the Bakersfield/Porterville area. I may try the late season now that I have a place to stay north of Yuma on the River. Nice to see we have things in common! Right on!

We just sold my folks house in Carlsbad and moved them up to Arcadia too. I'm not sure what place you have along the river, but we usually stay at Motel 6 and make the reservations the year before. AC, Pool, and out of the sun.

When we first started going to Yuma, we' be hunting on the Indian Reservations along the river. The Mexican kids would cross the river and retrieve and clean the doves for us and we'd give them a buck. It was fun helping them out and having them point out birds we didn't see coming.

Not that Yuma doesn't hold more than enough doves, but late season, Gila Bend, AZ holds even more doves.

Depends on where they are. We usually scout south and west of town.

You're just now figuring that out?

Used to do a lot of bird hunting, Dove, Quail, Pheasant etc. Great sport. Sounds like you had a great trip.
