In Arizona, the biggest state holiday following the Fourth of July is the Dove Opener on September First. While it's not an official holiday, it should be, as thousands of Arizonians & out of state hunters flock to the deserts to pursue Mourning, White-winged & Eurasian Collared Doves. With all this excitement, one place stands apart from Arizona for the sheer amount of Doves, and coincidingly, Dove Hunters. Yuma. Just saying it evokes thoughts of dove hunting to hunters across the southwest. Join me as I talk dove hunting in this Dove Mecca with staff from Quail Forever & AZGFD!
