Morning doves are said to be the leading game bird in North America with up to 70 million shot annually by hunters.
Raising up to six broods per year, these prolific breeders amply endure the annual hunting pressure with no discernible loss in numbers.
To enumerate the annual "kill" of doves in Texas, one must respond to a survey each year in order to purchase a migratory game bird stamp and thus collect more doves.
The fierce ranch hunter rather bashfully responded to the mandatory survey this year by replying that last years accumulation totaled a mere three lost aviary souls.
Understandably shamed by this paltry expression of game acquisition, the ole fat boy resolved to improve on assassination of the 55 mph fliers this season.
Alas, it appears to not be in the cards.....15 days into the season the myopic sexagenarian curmudgeon totals his game count at one (1), "numero uno"....as in a single fricken varmit bird?
Ain't no point in wastin' words on excuses? The proof is in the absence of protein in the freezer.
