2011 Dove Hunting Seasons will NOT be finalized until the June Fed Meeting
This was 2010 info use it as a guideline for this year! .
Texas dove season in the North and Central Dove Zones will run from Thursday, Sept. 1 through Oct. 23 and reopens December 23 through Jan. 8, with a 15-bird bag and not more than two of those may be white-tipped doves.

The South Zone dove season will run Friday, September 23 through October 30, reopening Dec. 23-Jan. 23 with a 15-bird bag and not more than two of those may be white-tipped doves.

Possession limit is twice the daily bag for all migratory game birds except light geese, which currently does not have a possession limit.

The Special South Texas White-winged Dove Area will open to white-winged dove afternoon-only (noon to sunset) hunting the first two full weekends in September running from and reopens when the regular South Zone season begins. The Special White-winged Dove Area season takes four of the allowable 70 days, so when the regular season opens, this area must close four days earlier than the rest of the South Zone. The daily bag limit is 15 birds, not more than four of those may be mourning doves during the first two weekend splits and not more than 2 may be white-tipped doves. Once the general season opens, the aggregate bag limit will be 15, not more than 2 white-tipped.

Texas’ 16-day September teal season will run Sept. 10-25.

The season for rail and gallinule is Sept. 10-25 and reopens November 5, through duck season.

About Texas Dove Hunting

Doves are truly "migratory birds" in every sense of the word. I have seen fields full of dove one day, and two days later there were very few to be found. I have also seen it the other way around, where it goes from darn few to literally 100's, even 1000's of dove, in just a day or even less. One thing is certain though; if you have dove food available to the birds, you will at some point in time, have birds around to shoot. So, that is where we concentrate our efforts; in making sure we have food available to any birds that would like to show up for dinner. We have sunflower fields, which are a favorite early season dove food. We also have the usual milo, corn and wheat fields, which can be great, depending on how the farmer's manage their crop. We even have access to some large areas of preferred native vegetation, like Conchograss, Barnyardgrass and Kleingrass, all of which mourning dove will fly past a lot of things to get to. We also have croton or crotonopsis fields (better know as "doveweed"). They call this stuff doveweed for a reason; doves love it, and in middle to late season these doveweed fields can yield some plum awesome hunting. We also hunt a lot of whitewing flyways, catching these flocking birds as they leave and return to the roosting areas. These pass shoots can be barrel burners at times (usually very early in the season, before they go to Mexico). If all else fails, we maintain a few stock tanks where the birds regularly go for an evening drink. Many an otherwise so-so dove hunting trip has been saved by a 15 minute flurry of ultra-fast paced shooting at one of these water tanks. And how do we know which of our many, many fields to take y'all to? WE SCOUT OUR BUTTS OFF! Many a mile has been driven by our scouts, watching carefully for bird activity on or over our places. Based on group size, weather, your vehicle limitations and our scouting reports, we will put you where we feel you have the best chance of shooting a limit of birds each and every day.
