August is my birthday month and for me brings with it the hint of good things to come, like dove and squirrel seasons. I know, I know, it's a bit premature, but I find myself staring at the calendar and plotting the next several hunts; starting with doves September 1st. I have a good spot that is all mine; not great, but consistently yields 15-20 good shots. I'm thinking about driving 5 hours to a great spot where I'm at risk of exceeding the limit. I'll have 4-5 shotguns to choose from, so gotta start obsessing about that too. What are you guys pondering these days as hunting seasons arrive?
