Georgia -(Ammoland.com)- What field will you be at on the opening day of dove season? Who will be with you?

The Georgia dove season opens at noon on Saturday, Sept. 5, 2015.

“The opening day of dove season usually provides such a fun atmosphere that everyone will have a great time,” said John W. Bowers, chief of the Game Management Section. “There are plenty of fields to choose from with approximately 40 state public dove fields, plus six new opportunities on private land available to the public through a U.S. Department of Agriculture program called the Voluntary Public Access (VPA)/Habitat Incentive Program.”

The official 2015-2016 dove seasons are Sept. 5-20, Oct. 10-Nov. 1 and Nov. 26 – Jan. 15. Shooting hours are noon until sunset on opening day (Sept. 5) and one-half hour before sunrise to sunset for the remainder of the season dates. Sunrise and sunset times for each day are found in the 2015-2016 Georgia Hunting Seasons and Regulations guide or online at www.georgiawildlife.com/hunting/regulations .
