Georgia’s dove hunting season opens Saturday, and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division wants to know who has plans for opening day. "Dove season is a fantastic reason to introduce someone new to hunting, it brings a lot of joy to participants and is a great kick off to the fall hunting season," said John W. Bowers, Chief of WRD Game Management. "Georgia has more than 50 public dove fields, including opportunities on private land made available to the public through a U.S. Department of Agriculture program called the Voluntary Public Access (VPA)/Habitat Incentive Program."
