I hope this turns into a good sunflower field, even though it is still to wet to drive tractor through.
what will you do with all those sunflower seeds, amberg... salt soak them, sun dry and eat them...?
Make for some good, late season dove shooting...

Yessir, that's the way I like to see'em flying on a field. Any watering holes nearby? We just blister them here every year on opening day.Same here, Have had as many as 30 hunters here, Year before last was the best hunt we ever had, They came in all day by the hundreds, constant shooting all day until we cut off at 6:00.

Sounds like it was a damn good shoot with plenty of closeby water for the birds...maybe ya'll will wear'em out again like that this opening day. I've been on a many a shoot just like you're talking about. I've still got a couple of MEC reloaders from past yrs in 12 and 20. Used to really like to reload the ol' Federal Gold Cup high brass, Fiocchi's...but I'd reload all of em.Plenty of water, A pond and 3 creeks. Several of the guys had to quit hunting before 2:00, they had their limit so they were able to come to the house and drink beer the rest of the day. I think everyone got their limit except a couple of the kids. And some of the remington and winchester shooters saved some of their hulls for me to reload.
Well finally got them planted. Hope the grass don't take them over.
I plant them to bring the doves in, we usually have a opening day hunt here every year. The field to the left is 3 acres of wheat which I will also leave for the turkeys and doves to munch on to. The sunflowers also attract the little gold finches by the hundreds to.
If you are looking at sept 1 st you might as well save your money aint going to get anything ready planting this late
oic, interesting... down here the popular way to do doves is... clean, take white meat roll around a jalapena (or pce) wrap with bacon, and grill...
The wife likes me to take the fillet of each side of the breast so she can dip them in flower to cook them in the skillet with onions and make gravy. Like she does the liver and onions. Hm Hm good!!
I like bird livers... chicken as a rule... cooked in butta' med rare... and served in pan juices with mayo on side... omg! soo good! yep!
much less excited about beef, though~
