1: Wear neutral colors
2: stay still until the doves are in range.
3: Mark where they land and retrieve immediately. many dead doves will suddenly fly off or walk off and they are lost.
4: Do not shoot at low birds. No dove is worth shooting someone.

I have been hunting doves since the mid 80's...before motorized dove or really any dove decoys were a thing and we did just fine. I wouldn't call hunting without decoys a "rookie" mistake.

LOVE the part about trying to shoot more than 1 bird. I only shoot double guns so that rarely happens. When I drop a bird, I follow it, stare at the spot, collect my dove. No need to get greedy and unethical. Great tips! I would add that I have noticed that doves are not nearly as stupid as folk would like to think they are. If you use motorized decoys and shoot at a large incoming covey of doves, you have just educated that covey. They WILL NOT be repeatedly fooled. In fact, I've done this then set up days later. I was in denial at first seeing doves in the distance spot my decoys and abruptly flair away MANY MANY yards out!?! Try to pick out singles or small groups of doves. You will find that in time, you get more of them!

The crappy part is when you don't live close and can't scout or like me only have one day to hunt and have to drive 90 miles to get there. It's always a dice toss
